Step-by-step explanation:

this is clearly not a linear sequence (the terms don't have the same difference).

so, it has to be a geometric sequence.

the common ratio is r.

s2 = s1 × r

16 = 64 × r

r = 16/64 = 1/4

control :

s3 = s2×r

4 = 16 × 1/4 = 4

correct.

A pizza parlor offers pizzas with diameters of 8 in, 10 in, and 12 in. find the area of each size pizza. round to the nearest te

MaRussiya [10]

Area od pizza, A = Pi*Diameter^2/4

A1 = Pi*8^2/4 = 50.27 in^2
A2 = Pi*10^2/4 = 78.54 in^2
A3 = Pi*12^2/4 = 113.10 in^2

Cost (C) per sq. in;
C1 = 50.27/9 = $5.59
C2 = 78.54/12 = $6.55
C3 = 113.10/18 = $6.28

The best buy is the first pizza with 8 in diameter as it costs the least per sq. inch.

Can someone with knowledge see what I did wrong on number 4<br>also see if number 3 is right

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

#4. m=0;

#3. m = $\frac{-1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems right.

#4.

Maybe your teacher wants you to write m=0; because when a fraction has a numerator equal to zero then the fraction is zero.

#3.

Maybe your teachers want you to simplify the fraction and write m = $\frac{-1}{2}$
