This is a proportion problem.

Let's make her Length x and her height 1/3 x.

1/3 x = 20 inches

x = 6 2/3 inches

Molly's height is 6 2/3 inches.

Check it.

6 2/3 x 3 = ? (change the mixed number to a fraction)

20/3 x 3 = ? (multiply)

60/3 = ? (divide)

20 inches. Yes, it checks.

Complete the recursive formula of the geometric sequence -1.5\,,\,6\,,-24\,,\,96,...−1.5,6,−24,96,...minus, 1, point, 5, comma,

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

$d(1)=-1.5$ and recursive formula is $d(n)=d(n-1)\cdot (-4)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given geometric sequence is

$-1.5, 6, -24, 96,...$

Here, the first term is -1.5. So

$d(1)=-1.5$

Second term is 6. So,

$d(2)=6$

In the given geometric sequence, the common ratio is

$r=\dfrac{d(2)}{d(1)}=\dfrac{6}{-1.5}=4$

The recursive formula of the geometric sequence is

$d(n)=d(n-1)\cdot r$

where r is common ratio.

$d(n)=d(n-1)\cdot (-4)$

Therefore, the recursive formula is $d(n)=d(n-1)\cdot (-4)$ .

Find the m Exterior angle of triangle

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

ebd + dbc = 180 because they make a straight line

120 + dbc = 180

dbc = 60

the three angles in a triangle always add up to 180 degrees

bcd + dbc + cdb = 180

60 + 60 + cdb = 180

120 + cdb = 180

cdb = 60
