What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, __________ ?
The equation for this sequence is:
an = an-1 + 2(n - 1)
where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:
a6 = a5 + 2(6 - 1)
a6 = 21 + 2(5)
a6 = 31
23 members of a bridal party need transported to a wedding reception but there are only 4 5-passenger taxis available to take them. How many will need to find other transportation?
There are 4 5-passenger taxis available so that's 4 x 5 = 20 total seats. There are 23 people needing transportation leaving 23 - 20 = 3 who will have to find other transportation.
This tool is a(n) __________.
combination wrench
Wrenches are used to provide grip and mechanical advantage by applying torque to turn objects (or to keep them from turning). The longer the wrench, the more torque that can be applied. Wrench ends are available in two primary types, open-end and box-end. A box-end wrench encloses the bolt head and is useful when more torque is needed or to maintain contact in difficult to reach locations. An open-end wrench is designed for speedily loosening easier to reach fasteners. Wrenches that feature one open and one box end are called combination wrenches and adjustable wrenches feature an open end with an adjustable width.
Which part of the respiratory system helps protect against infection?
pharynx
After air enters through the nose, it passes through the nasal cavity which filters, moistens, and warms it. Further filtering takes place in the pharynx, which also helps protect against infection, and then in the trachea which is just past the epiglottis, responsible for preventing food from entering the airway.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
gas
The gaseous state occurs at a higher temperature range than the solid and liquid states of the same substance. In this state, molecules flow very freely around each other and will spread out as far as they're able. Gases maintain neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
The valence shell of a conductor is how full of electrons?
less than half full
Conductors are elements that allow electrons to flow freely. Their valence shell is less than half full of electrons that are able to move easily from one atom to another.
