Answer:
4.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume the height of the taller brother be x
And, the height of the shorter brother be y
Now according to the question
x + y = 10.33
x - y = 0.833
Now solve these two equations
2x = 11.666
x = 5.833
y = 10.33 - 5.83
= 4.5 ft
Answer is 8671/6 which is the third choice
===================================
Work Shown:
Find the first term of the sequence by plugging in n = 1
a_n = (5/6)*n + 1/3
a_1 = (5/6)*1 + 1/3 replace n with 1
a_1 = 5/6 + 1/3
a_1 = 5/6 + 2/6
a_1 = 7/6
Repeat for n = 58 to get the 58th term
a_n = (5/6)*n + 1/3
a_58 = (5/6)*58 + 1/3 replace n with 58
a_58 = (5/6)*(58/1) + 1/3
a_58 = (5*58)/(6*1) + 1/3
a_58 = 290/6 + 1/3
a_58 = 145/3 + 1/3
a_58 = 146/3
Now we can use the s_n formula below with n = 58
s_n = (n/2)*(a_1 + a_n)
s_58 = (58/2)*(a_1 + a_58) replace n with 58
s_58 = (58/2)*(7/6 + a_58) replace a_1 with 7/6
s_58 = (58/2)*(7/6 + 146/3) replace a_58 with 146/3
s_58 = (58/2)*(7/6 + 292/6)
s_58 = (58/2)*(299/6)
s_58 = (58*299)/(2*6)
s_58 = 17342/12
s_58 = 8671/6
Answer:
8 percent loss
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8
6/3
7/10
These are all the answers 4/8 is 1/2 and 5/8 is over it there is no half of 3 but 6/3 is 2 and 2 is a whole number it's over 1/2
5/10=1/2 and 7/10 is over it 1/4 isn't an answer because 2/4=1/2 6/12=1/2 but it says over 1/2 and finally 5/12 isn't it because like I said above 6/12 is 1/2
Answer:
-0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
need to find the halfway point (average) between -0.75 and 0.25 (same as 1/4)
To get average, add them together: (-0.75) + (0.25) = -0.5, divide by two since there are two numbers, to get average -0.25
