Answer:
14 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
If you use the formula shown and calculate 1/2 (B x H) you will get 14 in. The base multiplied by the height is 28, and when divided in half, it is 14 in.
This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by 2 gives the next term.
<span>Answer:
The multiplication factor of increase should be inverse of the multiplication factor of decrease.
e.g. Say you have a number 100.
You increase it by 25%. The multiplication factor is 5/4 i.e. when you multiply 100 by 5/4, you get 100*5/4 = 125. This is 25% more than 100.
Now you want to decrease it by a certain % such that you get 100 back.
Basically, 100*5/4 * x = 100
So x = 4/5 (inverse of 5/4)
Hence, you decrease by 20% (the multiplication factor of 20% is 4/5)
or
Use this formula: cumulative % change = a + b + ab/100
You want the cumulative change to be 0.
a + b + ab/100 = 0
If you know that you are increasing by 25% and want to find the % by which you should decrease to get the same number,
25 + b + 25b/100 = 0
5b/4 = -25
b = -20
So you need to decrease (hence you get the -ve sign) by 20%.</span>
Find the common multiples:
Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48
Multiples of 9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45
The common multiples are 18 and 36
The first person in line to get both free would be the 18th person and then the 36th person.
So she is correct that the 36th person would get both free, but they wouldn't be the first person to do it.
