Bryan reads for x minutes. kelly reads for one-fourth the amount of time bryan reads. which statement explains why 1/4 x and 0.25x can each find the number of minutes kelly reads?

question 1 options:

a: the fraction 1/4 is equivalent to the decimal 0.75. therefore, 1/4 x can be rewritten as 0.75x.

b: the expressions are not equivalent.

c: multiplying by 4 is the same as multiplying by 25%.

d: multiplying 1/4 is the same as multiplying by 25%.

in the attachment.   i didn't see your choices.   the word which means there is choices.

step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

x tells you how much left or right you go from the origin

y tells you how much down or up you go from the origin

so for example (-3,2), you go left 3 and up twice. i denoted which of the ordered pairs is which in my graph.

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
