4 yards to 30 inches write each ratio in simplest form

24:5

Step-by-step explanation:

4 yards is 3 feet, so 4*3=12. There are 12 inches in a foot, so 12*12=144. 144:30= 72:15 = 24:5

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

discussion:

this ones a bit interesting. given a(n) = 5 - 3n consider this:

a(n-1) = 5 - 3(n-1)

          = (5 - 3n) + 3             => but a(n) = 5 - 3n, the first term

          = a(n)   + 3                 => subtract 3 from both sides

a(n-1) -3 = a(n)  

or

a(n) - a(n-1) -3
