Answer:

51

Step-by-step explanation:

A = Surface area of the Earth = 1.5\times 10^8\ \text{km}^2

Total number of people on Earth = 7.594 billion as of 2018 = 7.594\times 10^9

We need to find the number of people living in each square km of land area.

So, we need to divide the number of people by the land area of the Earth.

1.5\times 10^8\ \text{km}^2=7.594\times 10^9\ \text{people}

\Rightarrow 1\ \text{km}^2=\dfrac{7.594\times 10^9}{1.5\times 10^8}

\Rightarrow 1\ \text{km}^2=50.63\approx 51\ \text{people}

So, 51 people will inhabit each square km of land area.

The Boy scouts spent 10/12 hour doing their daily exercises. They only used 1/4 hour in hiking in. How much time did they use fo
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

10/12 of an hour/60 minutes = 50 minutes so they spent that amount of time doing daily exercises

1/4 of an hour/60 minutes = 15 minutes so they spend that time hiking

subtract the 15 mins of hiking from the total 50 of exercises = 35 for other body exercises

Part A

Answer: The common ratio is -2

-----------------------------------

Explanation: 

To get the common ratio r, we divide any term by the previous one

One example:
r = common ratio
r = (second term)/(first term)
r = (-2)/(1)
r = -2

Another example:
r = common ratio
r = (third term)/(second term)
r = (4)/(-2)
r = -2
and we get the same common ratio every time

Side Note: each term is multiplied by -2 to get the next term

============================================================
Part B

Answer:
The rule for the sequence is 
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
where n starts at n = 1

-----------------------------------

Explanation:

Recall that any geometric sequence has the nth term
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
where the 'a' on the right side is the first term and r is the common ratio

The first term given to use is a = 1 and the common ratio found in part A above was r = -2
So,
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
a(n) = 1*(-2)^(n-1)
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)

============================================================
Part C

Answer: The next three terms are 16, -32, 64

-----------------------------------

Explanation:

We can simply multiply each previous term by -2 to get the next term. Do this three times to generate the next three terms

-8*(-2) = 16
16*(-2) = -32
-32*(-2) = 64

showing that the next three terms are 16, -32, and 64

An alternative is to use the formula found in part B

Plug in n = 5 to find the fifth term
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
a(5) = (-2)^(5-1)
a(5) = (-2)^(4)
a(5) = 16 .... which matches with what we got earlier

Then plug in n = 6
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
a(6) = (-2)^(6-1)
a(6) = (-2)^(5)
a(6) = -32 .... which matches with what we got earlier

Then plug in n = 7
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
a(7) = (-2)^(7-1)
a(7) = (-2)^(6)
a(7) = 64 .... which matches with what we got earlier

while the second method takes a bit more work, its handy for when you want to find terms beyond the given sequence (eg: the 28th term)
