Hello,

Answer is C

a_1=0.5=\dfrac{1}{2} \\\\a_2=-0.1=-\dfrac{1}{10} =a_1*(-\dfrac{2}{10} )=a_1*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )\\\\a_3=0.02=\dfrac{2}{10^2} =a_2*(-\dfrac{2}{10} )=a_2*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )=a_1*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )^2\\...\\a_n=a_1*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )^{n-1}\\\\\boxed{a_n=0.5*(-0.2)^{n-1}}\\

Jim runs 12 miles in 4 hours how many feet does he run per minute
hjlf

h= number of hours

m= number of miles

Formula: 4h=12m

(4 hours equals 12 miles)

Divide 4 on each side.

h= 3m

3 miles per hour.

Then, convert miles to feet. And hours to minute.

To do this simultaneously,

Convert miles to feet and hours to minutes.

There should be 3 "fractions" to multiply.

The first should be the original problem:

3miles/1 hour. (3 miles per hour).

The second should be 1 hour/60min. (1 hour per 60 min).

The third should be 5280 ft/1 mile. (5280 feet per mile).

The second and the third fractions are to convert miles to feet and the hours to minutes.

Dovator [93]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of B' are just 3 times the coordinates of B, so the multiplier in the dilation is 3.

C' is the point with coordinates 3 times the coordinates of C, making C'(3, -12).

The y-coordinate is -12.
