Answer:

Rob is 76 cm tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = height of bill.

Let m = height of Mary.

Let r = height of Rob.

"the total heigh of bill mary and rob is 180 cm"

b + m + r = 180         Equation 1

"bob* is twice as tall as bill"

*I think you meant Rob is twice as tall as Bill.

r = 2b

"mary is 28 cm taller than bill"

m = b + 28

Substitue r = 2b and m = b + 28 into Equation 1.

b + b + 28 + 2b = 180

4b + 28 = 180

4b = 152

b = 38

r = 2b

r = 2(38) = 76

Rob is 76 cm tall.

Answer:

76 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The total height is 180 cm.  We set Bill as x.  Rob is 2x.  Mary is 28+x.

x + 2x + (28+x) = 180

4x +28 = 180

4x = 152

x = 38

This means that Bill is 38 cm.  Rob is 2x.  

2x = 2(38) = 76

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Green ball. $11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see.

15 balls. 7 are red. 6 are green. rest are yellow. That means there are 2 yellow balls.

Since there are more greens than yellows, you have a better chance of getting a green. That means you have a higher chance of getting $11

What is the recursive rule for an=4n−1? a1=4;an=an−1−1 a1=3;an=an−1+4 a1=−1;an=an−1+4 a1=3;an=an−1−1
navik [9.2K]
Plug in n = 1 into the nth term formula
a(n) = 4n-1
a(1) = 4*1-1
a(1) = 3
So the first term is 3

The second term will be 7 because we add on 4 each time, as indicated by the slope of 4. This is also known as the common difference.

So the nth term is found by adding 4 to the (n-1)st term, in other words,
a(n) = a(n-1)+4

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In summary, the answer is 
a1=3; an=an-1+4
which is choice B

Which represents the polynomial written in standard form?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write any polynomial in standard form, we need to check the degree of each term, then write each term in order of degree, from highest to lowest, left to right.

The given polynomial is

8x^2y^2-\dfrac{3x^3y}{2}+4x^4-7xy^3

Here, the combine degree of x and y in each term is 4.

If we arrange the terms according to the degree of x, then

4x^4-\dfrac{3x^3y}{2}+8x^2y^2-7xy^3

If we arrange the terms according to the degree of y, then

-7xy^3+8x^2y^2-\dfrac{3x^3y}{2}+4x^4

Hence, the correct option is A.
