Answer:

55,7425

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 60 minutes in one degree and 3600 seconds in one degree, the formula is:

Decimal degrees = Degrees + (Minutes/60) + (Seconds/3600)

Here Degrees stay the same 55;

44' = 44/60 ≈ 0,733...

33" = 33/3600 ≈ 0,009166...

I've divided and added those three numbers by calculator in one operation and it shows exactly 55,7425. If you add them separately, you'll need to round the result.

No.
a. take 35% off 30 =19.5
b. first take 25% off 30 = 22.5, then take 10% off 22.5 = 20.25

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (5, 2) and (3,-1)?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Slope = -4/5

to calculate the slope m use the gradient form

m = y2 -y1
————
x2 - x1

let (x1, y1) = (3,1) and (x2, y2) = (-2, 5)

m = 5 - 1 4
———- = ——-
-2 - 3 -5

= - 4/5

Which recursive formula can be used to generate the sequence shown, where f(1) = 5 and n > 1?

Degger [83]

The recursive formula $a_n = a_{n-1}-6$ can be used to generate the shown sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

Recursive formula is the formula that is used to generate the next term of a sequence using previous term.

The general form of arithmetic sequence's recursive formula is:

$a_n = a_{n-1}+d$

Given

5,-1,-7,-13,-19

Here

$a_1 = 5\\a_2 = -1\\a_3 = -7$

First of all we have to find the common difference of the sequence.

So,

$d = a_2 -a_1 = -1-5 = -6\\d = a_3-a_2 = -7+1 = -6$

Putting the value of d in the general recursive formula

$a_n = a_{n-1}-6$

Hence,

The recursive formula $a_n = a_{n-1}-6$ can be used to generate the shown sequence

Hugo recurved $100 for his birthday.He then saves 20$ per week until he had a total of $460 to buy a printer. Use a. Equation to

SashulF [63]

Answer:

18 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to use an equation to show the number of weeks it took Hugo who received a certain amount in his birthday and continually saved a certain amount before he could gather a certain amount of money.

In this question, we understand that Hugo wants to buy a printer that costs $460. Fortunately, he had his birthday and he received $100 bucks. Now, let’s say the number of weeks he had to save for is w and he saves 20 per week. This means the total amount he hit from his savings would be 20w

Mathematically, we can use the equation below to model this scenario;

100 + 20(w) = 460

20w = 460 - 100

20w = 360

w = 360/20

w = 18 weeks
