It takes Aliyah 30 minutes to solve 5 logic puzzles and it takes Gwen 28 minutes to solve 4 logic puzzles. Who finished the puzzles faster? (Hint: Find the unit rate for each person, then decide...)

answer: .75 km

step-by-step explanation:

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

none of these

23 + 34 add up to 57 so just inform the teacher of this really stupid mistake

fabric (square meters)                   cloaks

7                                                           21

4/3                                                         4

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that harry needs 2 square meters of fabric for every 6 wizard cloaks he makes.

1. first of all we will find how many cloaks can be made from 1 square meter of fabric by dividing 6 by 2.

we can see that 3 cloaks can be made from 1 square meter of fabric. now we will multiply 3 by 7 to find number of cloaks made from 7 square meters of fabric.

therefore, harry will make 21 cloaks from 7 square meters of fabric.

2. let us find how many square meters of fabric will be needed to make 4 cloaks.

first of all we will find fabric needed for 1 cloak by dividing 2 by 6.

we can see that fabric needed for 1 cloak is   square meter. now we will multiply   by 4 to find fabric needed for 4 cloaks.
