Hey there! :)
Answer:
a) 32 sticks.
b) 5n + 2 sticks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve this by finding the pattern.
Pattern # 1 = 7 sticks.
Pattern #2 = 12 sticks
Pattern #3 = 17 sticks.
We can see an increase of 5 sticks within each. We can use this to write an equation:
f(n) = 7 + 5(n-1)
***Where n is the term number
You can simplify the equation to become:
f(n) = 7 + 5n - 5
f(n) = 5n + 2.
Use this equation to solve for pattern # 6:
f(6) = 7 + 5(n-1)
f(6) = 7 + 5(5)
f(6) = 7 + 25
f(6) = 32.
Answer:
The pressure is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form
or 
In this problem we have

where
V is the volume of a gas at a constant temperature
P is the pressure
we have
For
,
step 1
Find the value of k
substitute the values of V and P


The equation is equal to 
step 2
Find the pressure when the volume is 125 cubic inches
For 
substitute in the equation and solve for P


B: 12.65 feet
if vanessa is already 7.25 feet down, and emily is 5.4 feet further, you would do 7.25+5.4 which is 12.65
C, her results are very close to one another
