Answer:
6.0 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence of distances is a geometric sequence with first term a1 and common ratio (1 +10%) = 1.10. The sum of 7 terms of the sequence is ...
S7 = a1·(r^7 -1)/(r -1)
56.923 = a1·(1.1^7 -1)/(1.1 -1)
5.6923 = a1·0.9487171
Dividing by the coefficient of a1 gives its value:
5.6923/0.9487171 ≈ 5.999997 ≈ 6.000
The hiker traveled 6.0 miles on the first day.
Where’s the question I need to see the problem
Answer:
A) y=-6x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-17-(-5))/(3-1)
m=(-17+5)/2
m=-12/2
m=-6
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-5)=-6(x-1)
y+5=-6(x-1)
y=-6x+6-5
y=-6x+1
Yes, James is correct.
Think of a pizza. If there are 5 slices and you have all 5 of them, then you have the whole pizza.
Now, instead of the pizza having 5 slices, it now has 10. Since the pizza is still the same size, the pieces are going to smaller. If you have 9 slices out of the 10, you won't have the whole pizza.
This is why 5/5 is greater than 9/10.
