Answer:  The answer is 7\dfrac{7}{8} ounces.

Step-by-step explanation: Given in the question the weight of Jarrett's puppy at birth, one week old and 2 weeks old are as follows:

b_0=3\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{15}{4}~\textup{ounces},\\\\\\b_1=5\dfrac{1}{8}=\dfrac{41}{8}~\textup{ounces},\\\\\\b_3=6\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{13}{2}~\textup{ounces}.

We can see that

b_1-b_0=b_2-b_1=\dfrac{11}{8}.

So, the weight of the baby will make an arithmetic progression with first term 'a' and common difference 'd' as follows:

b_0=\dfrac{15}{4},~~d=\dfrac{11}{8}.

Thus, the weight of the puupy after 3 weeks will be

b_3=b_0+3\times d=\dfrac{15}{4}+3\times\dfrac{11}{8}=\dfrac{30+33}{8}=\dfrac{63}{8}=7\dfrac{7}{8}~\textup{ounces}.

A robot moving forward at a constant speed takes 2.5 hours to travel 1 kilometer. Moving forward at this same constant speed, it
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The length of the hallway is 10 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken to cover 1 km = 2.5 hours

Distance covered in 2.5 hours = 1 km

Therefore, speed of robot = \frac{\textrm{Distance}}{\textrm{TIme}}=\frac{1}{2.5}=0.4\ km/h

Now, speed is constant.

Now, time taken to cover the length of hallway = 90 s

Speed of the robot = 0.4 km/h

Converting 0.4 km/h to m/s, we multiply by the factor \frac{5}{18}. This gives,

0.4\times \frac{5}{18}=\frac{1}{9}\ m/s

Now, distance of the hallway is equal to the product of speed and time. So,

Distance of hallway = Speed \times Time

Distance of hallway = \frac{1}{9}\times 90=\frac{90}{9}=10\ m

Therefore, the length of the hallway is 10 m.

What is the definition of math?
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In simpler words mathematics is the study of numbers , quantities, or shapes.

It is the science of structure, order, and relation that has evolved from elemental practices of counting, measuring, and describing the shapes of objects. It deals with logical reasoning and quantitative calculation, and its development has involved an increasing degree of idealization and abstraction of its subject matter.

Math is all around us, in everything we do. It is the building block for everything in our daily lives, including mobile devices, architecture (ancient and modern), art, money, engineering, and even sports...
