Number 4 &5 please 4. Sherri and Deion both have square posters. Sherri’s poster has an area of 49 square inches. If Deion’s poster has an area that is 4 square inches less than Sherri’s poster, what are the side lengths of Sherri’s and Deion’s posters?

5. Francisco thinks the square root of a number is always smaller than or equal to the number itself. Which explanation shows Francisco is incorrect?

16

step-by-step explanation:

2 x 40 = 80

80/5

= 16

42

step-by-step explanation:

answer: its the third option.

step-by-step explanation:

i just took the test.

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
