Answer:

Katie need 5.6 cups of soil.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we just need to multiply 8 by 2/3. Though to make this equation easier, I will turn 2/3 into a decimal by dividing the numerator (2) by the denominator (3.)

2  ÷ 3 = 0.7 when rounded to the nearest tenth.

Now, let's multiply 0.7 by 8.

8 x 0.8 = 5.6

Therefore, Katie need 5.6 cups of soil.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

5 and 1/3 cups of soil

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there, in this problem we can solve for the amount of soil that Katie will need by multiplying the factor for one of them by the number of pots we have, 8. We get 16/3 cups of soil, or 5 and 1/3 cups of soil.

Hope this helps!

Which formula can be used to find the nth term of a geometric sequence where the fifth term is 1/6 and the common ratio is 1/4?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Fifth term of a geometric sequence = \frac{1}{16}

Common ratio (r) = ¼

Required:

Formula for the nth term of the geometric sequence

Solution:

Step 1: find the first term of the sequence

Formula for nth term of a geometric sequence = ar^{n - 1}, where:

a = first term

r = common ratio = ¼

Thus, we are given the 5th term to be ¹/16, so n here = 5.

Input all these values into the formula to find a, the first term.

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{5 - 1}

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{4}

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{256}

\frac{1}{16} = \frac{a}{256}

Cross multiply

1*256 = a*16

Divide both sides by 16

\frac{256}{16} = \frac{16a}{16}

16 = a

a = 16

Step 2: input the value of a and r to find the nth term formula of the sequence

nth term = ar^{n - 1}

nth term = 16*\frac{1}{4}^{n - 1}

a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}

Write -12 in the improper fraction form.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

\frac{-12}{1}

Step-by-step explanation:

An Improper Fraction has a top number larger than (or equal to) the bottom number.

To convert a whole number -12 into an improper fraction we can divide the whole number by one to turn it into a temporary fraction.

\frac{-12}{1}

Also we could multiply and divide -12 by another number greater than one, for example:

\frac{-12*2}{1*2} = \frac{-24}{2}

There are several ways we can write -12 in the improper fraction form.
