Answer: 478 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: 3 ft 3 7/8 in. is 39 7/8 in. 39x12=468. 7/8x12=84/8 or 10 1/2. 468+10 1/2=478 1/2.

Find the x if the sequence 3, x, 4x/3 is (a)arithmetic and (b)geometric
jolli1 [7]

(a) When the sequence is arithmetic, sequential terms have a common difference.

... x - 3 = (4x/3) - x . . . . differences of sequential terms are equal

... (2/3)x = 3 . . . . . . . add 3-(1/3)x

... x = 9/2 . . . . . . . . . multiply by 3/2

(The arithmetic sequence is 3, 4.5, 6. The common difference is 3/2.)

(b) When the sequence is geometric, sequential terms have a common ratio.

... x/3 = (4x/3)/x . . . . . ratios of sequential terms are equal

... x^2 = 4x . . . . . multiply by 3x

... x = 4 . . . . . . . . divide by x. (the "solution" x=0 is extraneous)

(The geometric sequence is 3, 4, 16/3. The common ratio is 4/3.)

A gardener brought 5 rabbits, after 2 months rabbits became 10, and after 4 months they became 20. If the growth continues on th
kramer

Answer:

Initial population of Rabbit = 5 rabbit

After 2 months

Population of Rabbit = 10

After 4 months

population of rabbit = 20

Formula for growth is :

G = G_{0}[1 + R]^n, where G is final population and G_{0} is initial population, and R is growth rate.

1. 10 = 5 [1 +R]²

Dividing both sides by 5 , we get

2 = (1 + R)²

→ R + 1 = √2  ⇒ taking positive root of 2

→R = √2 -1

Amount of rabbit after 1 year = 20(1 + \sqrt2 -1)^8= 20 \times (\sqrt2)^8= 20 \times 2^4= 20 \times 16= 320

The graph of a proportional relationship passes through (12, 16)<br> and (1, y)<br> . Find y
k0ka [10]

Answer: The value of y is \frac{4}{3}.

Explanation:

It is given that the graph of a proportional relationship passes through (12, 16)

and (1, y).

The graph of a proportional relationship means the x and y coordinates are in a proportion k. The equation of the graph is in the form of y=kx. Where k is the proportion factor.

It is given that the graph passing through (12,16).

y=kx

16=k(12)

k=\frac{16}{12}

k =\frac{4}{3}

So the equation of the line is,

y=\frac{4}{3} x

put x=1.

y=\frac{4}{3} (1)

y=\frac{4}{3}

Therefore, the value of y is \frac{4}{3}.

sveta [45]
So for number there are 6 possible outcomes nad 5 is one of them so 1/6
He next one there are 2 outcomes and heads is 1 outcome so 1/2
For the next one you have to multiply them together so you get 1/12
And the events are independent because whatever you roll on the die won’t affect the coin(it actually does on a very small scale but I don’t think you go into that much detail for high school maths)
