The Hernandez family orders 3 large pizzas. They cut the pizzas so that each pizza has the same number of slices, giving them a total of 24 slices. The Wilson family also orders several large pizzas from the same pizza restaurant. They also cut the pizzas so that all their pizzas have the same number of slices. For the Wilson family, the equation y = 10x represents the relationship, where x represents the number of pizzas and y represents the number of total slices. Which statements best describe the pizzas bought by the Hernandez and Wilson families?

step-by-step explanation:

part a. the differences are decreasing, so we know the sequence is not arithmetic. the ratios are constant (=3/4), so we know the sequence is geometric.

part b. from part a, we know the common ratio is 3/4, so each term is 3/4 of the one before. the initial term is the number of gallons at h=1.

g[h] = (3/4)·g[h-1]

g[1] = 384 . . . . initial value required for a recursive definition

part c. the general formula for a geometric sequence is

a[n] = a[1]·r^(n-1)

we have a[1] = 384, r = 3/4, and the term number given by h. the formula that follows is

g[h] = 384·(3/4)^(h-1)

part d. filling in the value and doing the arithmetic, we have

g[12] = 384·(3/4)^11 ≈ 384·0.042235136 ≈ 16.2183 . . gallons

part e. each gallon is 4 quarts, so

16.2183 gal × 4 qt/gal = 64.8732 qt

x-150=475   x=625

step-by-step explanation:

if the bike after the sale ($150) is $475 then just simply add 150 to 475.

60: 45 =12: 9 =4: 3 so the answer is 4: 3
