Using proportions, it is found that the life span of the person would be 14 years, 212 days and 22 hours shorter.
---------------------------
- 2 packs a day for 35 years is 40 cigarettes a day for 12775 days, as
. - Thus, a total of 511000 cigarettes, as
. - Assuming each cigarette costs 15 minutes of life, the person loses 7665000 minutes of life, as
- One year has 525600 minutes, thus the person loses 14 years of life, as
- Looking at the decimal part, the person loses 212 days of life, as
- Again looking at the decimal part, 22 hours, as
- Thus, the person loses 14 years, 212 days and 22 hours of life.

Answer:
p = 1.5 and q = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the right side then compare the coefficients of like terms on both sides, that is
4(x + p)² - q ← expand (x + p)² using FOIL
= 4(x² + 2px + p²) - q ← distribute parenthesis
= 4x² + 8px + 4p² - q
Comparing coefficients of like terms on both sides
8p = 12 ( coefficients of x- terms ) ← divide both sides by 8
p = 1.5
4p² - q = 0 ( constant terms ), that is
4(1.5)² - q = 0
9 - q = 0 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
- q = - 9 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
q = 9

Answer:
I don't know what inductive reasoning is but, the next two numbers in the pattern are -243 and +729
Step-by-step explanation:
each number is being multiplied by a factor of (-3).
It’s A because the hundreds place is 5 the tens is 8 which is one less then 9 and the ones is 9 which is more then 8
