The given expression is \frac{1}{8}y

Thus, in verbal form, we can express it as one eighth of a number.

The sequence 6, 18, 54, 162, … shows the number of pushups Kendall did each week, starting
Svet_ta [4341]

a) The sequence is geometric.

b) The subsequent term is 486

c) The rule is: a_n=6(3)^{n-1}

The 20th term will be: a_{20}=6973568802

Step-by-step explanation:

The series 6, 18, 54, 162, ... depicts the number of push-ups Kendall performed each week, starting from her initial week of exercise.

Part a) Is this sequence arithmetic or geometric?

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference between consecutive terms.

In the given series 6, 18, 54, 162,

18-6 = 12

54-18= 36

The differences are not constant, thus it isn’t arithmetic.

A geometric sequence maintains a constant ratio between consecutive terms.

In this series 6, 18, 54, 162,

18/6 = 3

54/18 = 3

162/54 = 3

The ratios remain constant; therefore, the sequence is geometric.

The sequence in question is geometric.

Part b) How can you determine the next number in the series?

The next number can be calculated using the following formula:

a_n=a(r)^{n-1}

where a_n= nth term

a= first term

r= common ratio

The next number represents the 5th term of the sequence.

To find the 5th term:

a_n=a(r)^{n-1}\\a_5=6(3)^{5-1}\\a_5=6(3)^4\\a_5=6*81\\a_5=486

Thus, the next term in the sequence is 486

Part c) What is the rule for determining the 20th week? Calculate the 20th week.

The rule for determining the 20th week is:

a_n=6(3)^{n-1}

Here n=20

Calculating the 20th week

a_n=6(3)^{n-1}\\a_{20}=6(3)^{20-1}\\a_(20)=6(3)^{19}\\a_{20}=6973568802

How to write 600,000+80,000+10 in word form 
tester [3938]
In numerical format, this value is represented as 680,010.
In expanded notation, it can be expressed as
600,000 + 80,000 + 10

When written in words, it is described as
Six hundred eighty thousand and ten .

Take into account that the arrangement of the numbers corresponds to each of the forms presented

Six hundred thousand equals 600,000
Eighty thousand equals 80,000
Ten equals 10

On a coordinate plane, 3 triangles are shown. Triangle B C D has points (1, 4), (1, 2), (5, 3). Triangle B prime C prime D prime
Svet_ta [4341]

The transformation sequence that maps ΔBCD to ΔB"C"D" is:

Reflection across the y-axis combined with a translation of 6 units in the x direction and -5 units in the y direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's break down the reflection across the y-axis, horizontal translation, and vertical translation:

1. For point (x, y), reflecting it across the y-axis gives the point (-x, y).

2. Translating point (x, y) h units to the right results in (x + h, y), and h units to the left results in (x - h, y).

3. If point (x, y) is moved k units up, it becomes (x, y + k), and if moved k units down, it is (x, y - k).

∵ The vertices of triangle BCD are (1, 4), (1, 2), (5, 3).

∵ The vertices of triangle B'C'D' are (-1, 4), (-1, 2), (-5, 3).

∵ The x-coordinates of ΔB'C'D' have the same absolute value as those of ΔBCD but with opposite signs, indicating that ΔB'C'D' results from reflecting ΔBCD across the y-axis.

∵ The vertices of triangle B'C'D' are (-1, 4), (-1, 2), (-5, 3).

∵ The vertices of triangle B''C''D'' are (5, -1), (5, -3), (1, -2).

∵ The reflected x-coordinate -1 becomes +5, and -5 becomes +1,

thus the x-coordinates of triangle B'C'D' are increased by 6.

∵ The images of 4, 2, and 3 yield -1, -3, and -2 respectively,

hence subtracting 5 from the y-coordinates of triangle B'C'D' leads us to ΔB"C"D" through a translation of 6 units right and 5 units down ⇒ (x + 6, y - 5).

The transformation sequence that maps ΔBCD to ΔB"C"D" is:

Reflection across the y-axis combined with a translation of 6 units in the x direction and -5 units in the y direction.

A spring stretches by 21.0 cm when a 135 n object is attached. what is the weight of a fish that would stretch the spring by 49
Inessa [3926]
When the stretch is proportional to the weight, it can be expressed as:
weight/(49 cm) = (135 N)/(21 cm)
weight = (49/21)×135 N
weight = 315 N

The fish's weight would be 315 N.
