You have the correct answer. It is choice B) -1/4
=======================================================
Explanation:
This is because we're adding -1/4 to each term to get the next one. In other words, we're subtracting 1/4 from each term to get the next one.
- term2 = term1+(d) = 1/2 + (-1/4) = 1/2 - 1/4 = 2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4
- term3 = term2+(d) = 1/4 + (-1/4) = 1/4 - 1/4 = 0
- term4 = term3+(d) = 0 + (-1/4) = 0 - 1/4 = -1/4
- term5 = term4+(d) = -1/4 + (-1/4) = -2/4 = -1/2
and so on.
----------
To find the common difference, all we have to do is subtract any term from its previous one.
For example:
d = (term2) - (term1)
d = (1/4) - (1/2)
d = (1/4) - (2/4)
d = (1-2)/4
d = -1/4
The order of subtraction matters, so we cannot say d = term1-term2.
Dr black is standing 13 feet from a streetlamp. The lamp is making his shadow 9 feet long. He estimates that the angle of elevation from the tip of his shadow to the top of the streetlamp is 50° to the nearest foot the streetlamp is about 26 feet tall.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
if half the amount of blue marbles have sparkles you need to divide the amount of blue marbles in half
so 1/2 of 1/8 is 1/16
First let's make the denominators equal, so that we can compare the two fractions more easily.
To do this, we have to find a number that both 15 and 9 divide into. The smallest number that this can happen to is 45.
15 x 3 = 45
9 x 5 = 45
So we have to multiply 15 by 3 in order to make it into 45. If we're changing the denominator, the numerator must change too, by the same multiplier.
4 ---> 4 x 3 = 12
--
15 ---> 15 x 3 = 45
4/15 = 12/45
5 ---> 5 x 5 = 25
--
9 ---> 9 x 5 = 45
5/9 = 25/45
To find how many times more rings there are, we divide 25 by 12. As the result of this isn't an integer, we leave the answer as a fraction:
There rings inventory is 25/12 times bigger than the earrings inventory.
