Zeno jumped 8 meters. Then he jumped half as far again (4 meters). Then he jumped half as far again (2 meters). So after 3 jumps

, he was 8 + 4 + 2 = 14 meters from his starting place.

Answer:

  15 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeno's last jump was 2 meters, so another jump half as far adds 1 meter to the 14 m total.

After 4 jumps, Zeno would have jumped 15 meters from his starting place.

<em>Comment on the question</em>

The given distances give a total "after 3 jumps." The question asks for a total "after 4 jumps." It is not clear whether that is 4 jumps total, or 4 more jumps. In the above, we have assumed it is 4 jumps total.

14/2 = 7

7/2 = 3.5

3.5/2 = 1.75

1.75/2 = 0.875

In the following image, AB is parallel to DC, and BC is a transversal intersecting both parallel lines. The measure of angle ABC
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

n° = 62°

p° = 62°

q° = 118°

v° = 84°

w° = 138°

Step-by-step explanation:

angle ABC is 118°

so

m° + 118° = 180

m° = 180° - 118°

m° = 62°

n° = m° = 62° (corresponding angles are equal since AB is parallel to DC, and BC)

p° = n° = 62° (vertical angles are equal)

q° + n° = 180° (linear pair angles)

q° + 62° = 180°

q° = 180° - 62°

q° = 118°

v° + 96° = 180° (linear pair angles)

v°  = 180° - 96°

v° = 84°

w° + 42° = 180 (linear pair angles)

w° = 180° - 42°

w° = 138°
