Tangerine is simply color orange, which is an addition of red and yellow colors. To analyze if the portions written below are reasonable, the given sum must equal to the sum of the individual red and yellow parts.

Total Red + Total Yellow = 5(3/10)
3(9/10) + 2(3/8) ? 5(3/10
3.45 ? 1.5
3.45 ≠ 1.5

<em>Since they are not equal, then it means the portions are unreasonable.</em>

What is the next term in the sequence below? -324,108,-36,12,...
liq [111]
This is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of -1/3 and an initial term of -324.  Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:
a(n)=ar^(n-1), in this case a=-324 and r=-1/3 so
a(n)=-324(-1/3)^(n-1)  so the 5th term will be
a(5)=-324(-1/3)^4
a(5)=-324/81
a(5)= -4

The bread is on sale for $1.50 so Erica is also going to buy candy or gum. Which can she afford?
Alborosie
Ok, so she started off with $5.00. 


She bought milk for $2.99.

She buys bread, which costs $1.50. 

Subtracting the money she wasted, the total would be $0.51. 

The only thing she could buy is 5 pieces of gum for 25 cents. 

Her change will be $0.26. 

Hope this helps!

Find the midpoint of the line segment with end coordinates of:
Arisa [49]

Answer:

The midpoint of this line segment is (-1.5, -4.5).

Step-by-step explanation:

In finding the midpoint of a line segment we are actually averaging the x- and y-coordinates of the endpoints:

                                             -2 -1

x-coordinate of midpoint = --------- = -3/2 = -1.5

                                                 2

                                              -4 -5

y-coordinate of midpoint = ---------- = -4.5

                                                   2

The midpoint of this line segment is (-1.5, -4.5).
