Answer:

The eighth of an inch scale measures more precisely.

Step-by-step explanation:

An eighth of an inch means that one inch is divided into 8 equal lengths on the scale i.e. the minimum length that can be measured is \frac{1}{8} =0.125 inch.

Again a fourth of an inch means that one inch is divided into 4 equal lengths on the scale i.e. the minimum length that can be measured is \frac{1}{4} =0.25 inch.

Therefore, the eighth of an inch scale measures more precisely as it can measure more small measurements. (Answer)

Answer:

  a_n=-3+7(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive rule tells you the initial term of the sequence is a1 = -3, and the common difference is d=7. (7 is the value added to one term to get the next term.)

Putting these values into the formula for the explicit rule gives ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

  an = -3 + 7(n -1)

Hya think of a number "m" . She square it, add "y" to the answer and then subtract 7 from it. The final answer is "A". 1) Derive
Bond [772]
<h2><u>Solution (1)</u> :</h2>

Given, to find A we have to :

  • square m
  • Add y to m²
  • Subtract 7 from m² + y

From the question, the following equation can be formed :

=\tt  A = {m}^{2}   + y - 7

Therefore, the formula for finding A = m² + y - 7

<h2><u>Solution (2)</u> :</h2>

The value of A we can derive from the formula is :

=\tt A =  {m}^{2}  + y - 7

Value of m = 3 (given)

Which means :

=\tt A =   {3}^{2}  + y  - 7

=\tt \: A = 9 + y - 7

=\tt A = 9 - 7 + y

\color{plum} =\tt A = 2 + y

Thus, the value of A = 2+y

Therefore, the value of A = <u>2+y</u>
