Let the number be x
2/3*x - 2 = 10
or, 2/3 * x =12
or x= 12*3/2
or, x = 18
A(n) = a₁.(r)ⁿ⁻¹, where a₁ = 1st term, r= common ratio and n, the rank
In the formula given a₁ = 5, r = 3/2 and n = 6 (we have to find the 6th term value).
a₆ = 5.(3/2)⁶⁻¹ = 5.(3/2)⁵ = 1215/32 (answer C)
Answer:
D.) (14, 0); the time it takes for the bird to reach the ground
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached graph shows a plot of the table values and the two offered solution options.
The dependent variable in this scenario is the bird's height above the ground. When that is zero, the bird is on the ground. This fact makes choices B and C seem ridiculous.
We note from the table and graph that the bird is on a path that decreases in height by 3 feet every 2 seconds. If the bird continues that rate of descent, it will reach the ground after 14 seconds.
That is, its (time, height) pair will be (14, 0), matching choice D.
_____
Choosing any answer to this question requires making assumptions that are inconsistent with real-world bird behavior. At least, the problem statement should say what assumptions are applicable.
Answer:
4 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to gte the denominators the same!
So we multiply the 1/4 by 2
1/4 x 2 = 2/8
Now we subtract the 2/8 from 5 1/8 to get our answer :)
5 1/8 - 2/8 = 4 7/8
Your final answer will be 4 7/8 :)
Have a great day!
