Answer:the number of gallons of water left is 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial amount of water in the container is 4 3/8 gallons. Converting 4 3/8 gallons to improper fraction, it becomes 35/8 gallons of water.
A hole in the container causes 7/8 gallon to leak out. The number of gallons of water left in the container would be
Initial amount - amount that leaked. It becomes
35/8 - 7/8 = 28/8 = 3 4/8 = 3.5 gallons of water
Answer: over the starting point

Answer: 30</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
"Use 3 for pi" is something I've never seen a teacher do before. Usually it's "use 3.14 for pi".
Anyway, the diameter of this cylinder is 2 inches, which cuts in half to 1 inch. This is the radius.
The height is 10 inches.
So we have r = 1 and h = 10
V = pi*r^2*h
V = 3*1^2*10
V = 30 cubic inches approximately
Interesting question. Good to know for computer science.
Suppose you have a function like
an = 3x - 2 Try the first couple
a1 = 3(1) - 2
a1 = 3 - 2
a1 = 1
a2 = 3(2) - 2
a2 = 6 - 2
a2 = 4 So each term differs by 3
a2 - a1 = 3
an = a_(n - 1) + 3
a3 = a2 + 3
a3 = 4 + 3
a3 = 7
a4 = a3 + 3
a4 = 7 + 3
a4 = 10
a5 = a4+ 3
a5 = 10 + 3
a5 = 13
I'll do one more and then check it.
a6 = a5 + 3
a6 = 13 + 3
a6 = 16
a6 = 3x -2
a6 = 3*6 - 2
a6 = 18 - 2
a6 = 16 which checks.
So the general formula is
an = a_(n - 1) * k if you were multiplying or
an = a_(n - 1) + k if you were adding. The key thing is that you are working with the previous term.
