Two longtime friends, Joyce and Laurie, want to get back in touch with their childhood friend Rhonda, but they do not know whether she still lives in the area. Joyce randomly selects phone numbers from the local phonebook and asks people if they know Rhonda. Laurie calls numbers listed in the local phonebook for people who have the same last name as Rhonda. Joyce has approached the problem with aNo approach, whereas Laurie has approached the problem with aNo .

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.

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2

the answers might not be correct use at own risk

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.

1. make -15.66 ÷   5.8 a fraction. then divide.

2. simplify.  

3. final answer.
