Aschool system is reducing the amount of dumpster loads of trash removed each week. in week 5, there were 40 dumpster loads of waste removed. in week 10, there were 30 dumpster loads removed. assume that the reduction in the amount of waste each week is linear. write an equation in function form to show the amount of trash removed each week.
a. f(x) = - 2x + 40
b. f(x) = 2x + 40
c. f(x) = - 2x + 50
d. f(x) = 2x + 50

What is the nth term rule of the linear sequence below? 27 , 25 , 23 , 21 , 19 , . .

Julia is going for a walk through the neighborhood. what unit of measure is most appropriate to describe the distance she walks?

Cone w has a radius of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm. square pyramid x has the same base area and height as cone w. paul and manuel disagree on how the volumes of cone w and square pyramid x are related. examine their arguments. which statement explains whose argument is correct and why? paul manuel the volume of square pyramid x is equal to the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is three times the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is (area of base)(h) = (200.96)(5) = 1,004.8 cm3. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x.
