You said how many pieces can be cut...3 pieces can be cut
Answer: Please see explanation column for answer
Step-by-step explanation:
According to sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, 162
--we can see that it is a geometric sequence since to go from one term to the next requires us to multiply by 3 which is called the common ratio which is gotten by dividing the next by the previous.
ie term 2/ term 1= 6/2 = 3
term 3/ term 2= 18/6= 3
term 4/ term 3= 54/28= 3
term 5 / term 4= 162/54=3
term 6 will therefore be 162 x3 = 486
and term 7 = 486 x 3=1,458 and so on
Recall that nth term of GP is
Tn = ar^n-1
Where a= first term
r= common ratio
n= term
such that to easily find particular term, we plug in the values and calculate
for example the 10th term of the above sequence
Tn = ar^n-1
= 2 X 3 ^(10-1)
2 X 3^9
T10 =39,366
Answer:
The correct answer is A.) 45 + 70x < 250.
y = mx + b
She started at 45 miles (+ 45).
She has to go at least 250 miles (< 250).
She is driving at a constant, unchanging speed of 70 mph (70x).
