It takes 1 yard 2 feet of material to make a pillow. how much material is required to make 8 pillows?

1 yd   2 ft

* 8

8 yd  16 ft

but we can reduce 16 ft

there are 3 ft in a yd

16/3 = 5 yds with 1 left over

8 yds 16 ft = 8 yds + 5yds 1 ft

13 yds 1 ft

207/8 is the right

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
