Leons older brother is 4 and 3/4 feet tall. Leon is 1/3 foot shorter than his brother .how tall is leon
Mandarinka [93]

Let

x------> height of Leon's older brother

y------> height of Leon

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

4\frac{3}{4}\ ft=\frac{4*4+3}{4}= \frac{19}{4}\ ft

we know that

x=\frac{19}{4}\ ft -----> equation A

y=x-\frac{1}{3} -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

y=\frac{19}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{53}{12}\ ft

Convert to mixed number

\frac{53}{12}=\frac{48}{12}+\frac{5}{12}=4\frac{5}{12}\ ft

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

4\frac{5}{12}\ ft

Find the explicit formula for the general nth term of the arithmetic sequence described below. Simplify the formula and reduce a
NemiM [27]

Answer:

an = 4/3n - 13/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is a1,

a24 = a1 + 23d

83/3 = a1 + 4/3* 23

a1 =    83/3 - 92/3

a1 = -9/3 = -3.

So the nth term an =  -3 + 4/3(n - 1)

an = -3 + 4/3 n - 4/3

an = 4/3n - 13/3
