Answer:The numbers are 8 1/3, 9 1/3, and 10 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Write and solve an equation of ratios:
5 *10^9 years 100 m
------------------- = --------------
5 * 10^3 yrs x
Reducing the first fraction,
100 m
10^6 = ----------
x
100 m
Solving for x, x = ------------- = 10^(-4) m, or [10^(-1)] * [10^(-3))]
10^6
this comes out to one tenth of 1 millimeter.
I don't understand. What are the values given? Are they values of an x,y plot?
If you plot them they are a straight line with y =6x - 2.9 but I don't know what you mean by when x=3 and y = 4?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
This is an arithmetic series. Each term differs by 6 from the previous one.
Givens
a1 = 21
d = 6
Formula
a_n = a1 + (n - 1)*d
Sample
Try it.
Let's let n = 3 which we have the answer for.
a_3 = 21 + (3-1)*6
a_3 = 21 + 2 * 6
a_3 = 21 + 12
a_3 = 33
That's exactly what the 3rd term is.
one point should go on 8 and another on -6
