Mathematics

Temka [501]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

This is a geometry sequence (I.e each term is found by multiplying the same value to the previous term).

T1 = 4

T2 = -12 = T1 X (-3) = 4 X (-3)

T3 = 36 = T2 X (-3) = 4 X (-3)^2

T4 = 108 = T3 X (-3) = 4 X (-3)^3

The general (explicit) formula for the n-th term of this sequence is:

S(n) = 4 X (-3)^(n-1)

Cannot see all of the first question but for the paint question: if he’s got 1 1/3 gallons and 3/6 gallons already, 3/6 can be reduced to 1/2 then added to the 1 1/3 to give him a total of 1 3/4 gallons. 4 1/2 - 1 3/4 means he’ll need 2 and 3/4 gallons.

You are walking 3.5 miles per hour. At this pace, how long will it take to walk the 6 miles to school?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = s = 3.5 miles / hour

d = 6 miles

t = ?

============

t = d / s

t = 6 / 3.5

t = 1.714 hours

t = 1 5/7 hours

You could figure this out in minutes for 5/7 but it will not make the time any clearer. You will still wind up with a fraction.
