Answer:

Debbie runs 9 feet per second: 9 ft/s

Jessica runs 1 mile  in 440 seconds: 414/50 ft/s = 207/25 ft/s = 8 7/25 ft/s

jesssica runs 131 feet in 10 seconds: since 1 mile = 5280 ft we have 1/470 mi/s = 5280/470 ft/s = 528/47 ft/s = 11 11/47 ft/s

ron runs 603 feet in 1 minute: 547 ft/min = 603/60 ft/s = 201/20 ft/s = 10 1/20 ft/s

Since:

11 11/47 > 10 1/20 > 9 > 8 7/25

Emily runs the fastest.

Write the explicit formula for the geometric sequence.
netineya [11]
We are given the series of <span>a1 = -5 a2 = 20 a3 = -80. In this case, we can see that this is a geometric sequence with a geometric ratio equal to 20/-5 = -80/ 20 or equal to 4. Hence, r is equal to 4, a1 is equal to -5. 

The geometric sequence formula is an = a1*r^(n-1) = -5 * (-4)^ (n-1) where n is an integer. Answer is B.</span>

Latrell is comparing two job opportunities one job will pay $12 an hour and he will work 40 hour a week. The other one pays an a
Nata [24]

To compare these two jobs, you need to have a common point. In this problem, you have to solve for the annual salary of the first job and compare it with the annual salary of the second job which is already given.

$12 per hour x 40 hours per week x 48 weeks in a year = $23,040

First job’s annual salary is $23,040

Second job’s annual salary is $22,000

Therefore, the job which pays $12 an hour pays more.
