Answer:

Sequence 1: arithmetic; Sequence 2: Geometric

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is one in which each term is found by adding a constant to the previous term. In sequence 1, we see that we add -16 to each term to find the next one; that makes this an arithmetic sequence.

A geometric sequence is one in which each term is found by multiplying a constant to the previous term. In sequence 2, we see that we multiply 0.5 by each term to find the next one; that makes this a geometric sequence.

Sequence 1 is arithmetic because it is being subtracted by 16.

Sequence 2 is geometric because it is being divided by 2.

Arithmetic is when you're adding or subtracted and geometric is when you multiplying or dividing.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1) First and Second and Third

$\dfrac{3\ total\ prizes}{29\ total\ people}\times \dfrac{2\ remaining\ prizes}{28\ remaining\ people}\times \dfrac{1\ remaining\ prize}{27\ remaining\ people}=\dfrac{6}{21,924}\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{1}{3,654}}$

$\dfrac{3\ total\ prizes}{29\ total\ people}\times \dfrac{2\ remaining\ prizes}{28\ remaining\ people}=\dfrac{6}{812}=\large\boxed{\dfrac{13}{406}}$

$3)\quad \dfrac{29!}{(29-10)!}=\large\boxed{72,684,900,288,000}$

$4)\quad _{10}C_3=\dfrac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}=\large\boxed{120}$

Ronnie, Mack, Kim, and Ada together stacked a total of 40 pizzas in a pan. Ronnie stacked 0.25 of the pizzas, Mack stacked 9 of

natta225 [31]

Hello!

Here's how much each person stacked:

Ronnie -- 0.25 of the 40 pizzas.

Mack -- 9/40

Kim -- 35% of the 40 pizzas.

Ada -- rest of the pizzas.

Now, the questions asks for who stacked the most pizzas.

First, find our how many pizzas they stacked out of 40.

40 × 0.25 = 10

40 × 35% = 14

10 + 9 + 14 = 33

40 - 33 = 7

This means that Ronnie stacked 10 pizzas, Mack stacked 9 pizzas, Kim stacked 14 pizzas, and Ada stacked 7 pizzas.

ANSWER:

Kim stacked the most pizzas since she stacked 14 of them.
