Answer:
She can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.
Step-by-step explanation:
In every jump, she goes 1/2 as far as her prior jump.
In the 1st jump, she covered a distance, d_1= \frac 1 2 foot.
The distance covered in the 2nd jump
[tex]d_2= \frac 12 \times d_1 = = \frac 12 \times \frac 12= \frac 1 4[/tex] (given)
So, the distanve covered in the 3rd jump
[tex]=\frac 12 \times d_2= \left(\frac 1 2\right )^2\times \frac 1 2= \left(\frac 1 2\right)^{3-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]
Similarly, the distance covered in the [tex]r^{th}[/tex] jump
[tex]=\left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]
Assuming she requires [tex]n[/tex] jumps to travel 1 foot of distance.
So, the sum of all the distances covered in n jumps = 1 foot
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \frac 1 4 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n-1}\times \frac 1 2=1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \left(\frac 12 \right)^2 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r}+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n}=1[/tex]
This a geometric progression, G.P., of [tex]n[/tex] terms having common ration, r= 1/2 and the first term [tex]a_1= 1/2[/tex].
As sum of all the n terms of G.P [tex]=\frac {a_1(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex],
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1/2((1/2)^n-1)}{1/2-1}=1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow - \left(\left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1\right)=1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1=-1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n=-1+1=0[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1}{2^n}=0[/tex]
This is only possible, mathematically, when [tex]n\rightarrow \infty[/tex], But in real life situation reaching infinity is not possible.
Hence, she can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.
Jon is stuck on the side of a cliff. Jon is at the midpoint from the ground to the top of the
cliff. Jon is 40 + 2 feet away from the bottom of the cliff. The cliff is 200 feet tall.
Solve for x.
How far is Jon from the top of the cliff
Complete question is;
Jon is stuck on the side of a cliff. Jon is at the midpoint from the ground to the top of the cliff. Jon is 40 + 2x feet away from the bottom of the cliff. The cliff is 200 feet tall.
Solve for x.
How far is Jon from the top of the cliff
Answer:
x = 30 ft
Jon is 100 ft from the top of the cliff
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Jon is at the mid point of the Cliff.
Since The cliff is 200 feet tall, the Jon is; 200/2 ft = 100 ft from either the top or bottom.
Now, we are told that Jon is 40 + 2x from the bottom of the cliff.
Thus;
40 + 2x = 100
Subtract 40 from both sides;
40 - 40 + 2x = 100 - 40
2x = 60
x = 60/2
x = 30 ft
And Jon is 100 ft from the top of the cliff as earlier seen

Show the value of one group.
Answer:
x = 6
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving (1)
5x - 4 = 3x + 8
Bring variables to one side
5x - 3x = 8 + 4
The result is
2x = 12
Solve for x
½ * 2x = ½ * 12
x = 6
Solving (2)
-4x + 7 = -7x - 8
Bring variables to one side
7x - 4x = -7 - 8
The result is
3x = -15
Solve for x
⅓ * 3x = -15 * ⅓
x = -5
√600 and ∛56 and show work
Answer:
√600 is around 24.5 while ∛56 is around 3.83
Step-by-step explanation:
Method: TRIAL AND ERROR
For √600, we can follow trial and error method:
30^2 is 900, so too big
20^2 is 400, so too small
25^2 is 625, too big
24^2 is 576, too small
Considering that 600 is between 24^2 and 25^2, we can try in between:
24.5^2 is 600.25, which is very close, therefore 24.5 is the answer
For ∛56, we can also follow trial and error method:
5^3 is 125
4^3 is 64
3^3 is 27
Considering that 56 is somewhere between 3^3 and 4^3, and that it's much more closer to 4^3, we can try 3.6^3, which is: 46.656;
3.7^3 is 50.6
3.8^3 is 54.8
3.9^3 is 59
3.85^3 is 57
3.84^3 is 56.6 (still larger)
3.83^3 is 56.1
So the answer is 3.83
But the method above works when using calculator, best for a calculator exam. If calculator is not allowed, you can find the difference between the two possible answers (e.g: 27 and 64 (3^3 and 4^3) following the above, to find out ∛56.) Of course, 56 is much nearer to 4^3, so we can assume that the answer is around 3.8.
Hope this helped. :)

4x - 8 = 12
4x - 8 + 8 = 12 + 8
4x = 20
4/4x = 20/20
x=
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
If 4x=20 then all we need to do is to divide both sides by 4 and we get x=5. Also, if replace x with 5 within any of the equations it works.
Hope this helps!
The solution is: The value of x is: x=5
Here, we have,
given that,
the expression is: 4x - 8 = 12
we get,
4x - 8 = 12
or, 4x - 8 + 8 = 12 + 8
or, 4x = 20
now, we have,
If 4x=20 then all we need to do is to divide both sides by 4 and we get x=5.
i.e. 4x/4 = 20/4
or, x = 5
Also, if replace x with 5 within any of the equations it works.
Hence, The solution is: The value of x is: x=5

Triangle ABC is translated 4 units down and 6 units right, resulting in triangle A'B'C'.
What are the coordinates of the point B'?
A. (-6,7)
B. (-1,6)
C. (4, -3)
D. (6,-1)
Answer:
The new coordinate of B' will be ( -1, 6)
The translated coordinate of the point B' will be (-1,6).
What is translation?The process of changing the location of the image on the coordinate system will be known as the translation.
A coordinate plane is a 2D plane that is formed by the intersection of two perpendicular lines known as the x-axis and y-axis. A coordinate system in geometry is a method for determining the positions of the points by using one or more numbers or coordinates.
Given that the coordinates of point B of the triangle are (1,6). The translated coordinates will be,
B = ( 3, 0 )
Translated 4 units down and 6 units right,
B' = ( 3 - 4 , 0 + 6 )
B' = ( -1, 6 )

Which graph shows four points that represent equivalent ratios?
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Only option b from the available options represents equivalent ratios.
What is ratio?The ratio can be defined as the number that can be used to represent one quantity as a percentage of another. Only when the two numbers in a ratio have the same unit can they be compared. Ratios are used to compare two objects.
Equivalent ratios are the ratios that are the same when we compare them. Two or more ratios can be compared with each other to check whether they are equivalent or not.
The function of a line that shows the equivalent ratio always goes through the origin point of a cartesian plane.
The general form of the equation that shows the equivalent ratio:
Y = MX
Where M is Slope
therefore, From the given Options only option b is representing equivalent ratios.

Answer:
Minimum, Vertex(1,-7) and sorry what do you mean by aos? i dont get that please type in the comments I'll answer that too. Hope you understand the rest
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex of a parabola means the stationary point/turning point which is denoted by the following:
[tex]x=\frac{-b}{2a} \\[/tex]
and for y we just simply put the value of x that we get into the equation so lets get started
The equation [tex]y=x^2-2x-6[/tex] is a quadratic equation
and if we compare it by the standard form [tex]y=ax^2+bx+c[/tex] we get the following values
a=1 , b=-2 , c=-6
and now for the vertex
[tex]x=\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-(-2)}{2(1)} \\x=\frac{2}{2} \\x=1[/tex]
and now for y
[tex]y=x^2-2x-6\\y=(1)^2-2(1)-6\\y=1-2-6\\y=-7[/tex]
so the vertex is (1,-7)
and the graph is minimum not maximum because the value of a is greater than 0 if the value of a>0 then the graph is minimum and if the value of a<0 meaning a is negative the graph is maximum and here in the equation a=1 which means a>0 then our graph is minimum.

A school district needs to arrange transportation for at least 360 students for a field trip. The district can use large buses or small buses. The large buses hold 60 students each and have an operating expense of $300 for the day. The small buses hold 45 students each and have an operating expense of $200 for the day. The district only has chaperones for, at most, seven buses. What is the minimum cost for the transportation for the field trip if each bus has chaperones? $1,400 $1,600 $1,700 $1,800
Answer:
The minimum cost for the transportation for the field trip is $1700
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the no. of large buses and y be the no. of small buses
Number of students in large bus = 60
Number of students in x large buses = 60x
Cost of 1 large bus =$300
Cost of x large buses = 300x
Number of students in small bus = 45
Number of students in y small buses = 45y
Cost of 1 small bus =$200
Cost of y small buses = 200y
Cost = 300x+200y
We are given that A school district needs to arrange transportation for at least 360 students
[tex]60x+45y \geq 360[/tex]
The district only has chaperones for, at most, seven buses.
[tex]x+y \leq 7[/tex]
Plot the lines on graph
[tex]60x+45y \geq 360[/tex] --- Black region
[tex]x+y \leq 7[/tex] --- Red region
Feasible points :
At(3,4)
Cost = 300x+200y=300(3)+200(4)=1700
At(7,0)
Cost = 300x+200y=300(7)+200(0)=2100
At(6,0)
Cost = 300x+200y=300(6)+200(0)=1800
So, The minimum cost for the transportation for the field trip is $1700
