When the product of 1/3 and 1/2 is subtracted from the sum of 1/3 and 1/2 what is the difference. ANSWERS ASAP

"Difference between" means to subtract the first minus the second "Sum of" means to add the first plus the second "Product of" means to multiply the first times the second. what is [the difference between (the sum of 1/2 and 1/3) and (the product of 1/2 and 1/3)]? Then we do (the sum of 1/2 and 1/3) = 1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6.

step-by-step explanation:

yard and mile are too big.

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
