Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

You cannot simplify this question anymore, for it is already a whole number.

Steps:

-3/1

Eliminate the fraction bar and one...

-3

(Anything over one, is whole...so if I were to put 98384743/1, it would just be 98384743.)

The fourth term of a sequence is 108. Each term after the first is 3 times the previous term. Write an explicit expression that

marishachu [46]

Answer:

$f(n)=4(3)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first term be $x$ , then the terms of the sequence are:

$x,3x,9x,27x,81x,...$ .

Since the fourth term is 108, we have

$27x=108$

$\implies x=4$

Hence the sequence becomes:

$4,12,36,108,324,...$ .

The explicit expression for a geometric expression is given by:

$f(n)=ar^{n-1}$

where a=4 and r=3

The required formula is:

$f(n)=4(3)^{n-1}$

One end of a ramp is raised to the back of a truck 5 feet above the ground. 1 point

sveta [45]

Answer:

38.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

You are basically looking at a triangle with a 90° angle (check picture).

Since we are looking for the ramp's angle and are given the length of the opposite and the hypothenuse, we have to solve the following equation:

$sin (\alpha) = opposite / hypothenuse= 5 ft/8ft$

which is equivalent to

$\alpha = sin^{-1}(5/8)\approx 38.7\deg$

Freddie put an empty bucket underneath a leaking pipe. After 3/4 hours, Freddie collected 1/2 cups of water. What is the rate, i

lidiya [134]

0.35 cups/hour

To be able to determine the rate at which the water is leaking from the pipe with the information given, you have to divide the number of cups by the number of hours in which they were collected:
12 cups/34 hours= 0.35 cups/hour
According to this, the answer is that the rate at which the water is leaking from the pipe is 0.35 cups/hour.

Hope this helps!!
