Determine which of these sets are subsets of which other of these sets. Check ALL correct answers below.
The Set C is the subset of A and D.
According to the statement
we have given that the three sets which are A = {2, 4, 6}, B = {2, 6}, C = {4, 6}, and D = {4, 6, 8}.
And we have to find that the subsets of these sets.
So,
For a set S to be a subset of a set T, all of the elements of the set S need to be contained in the set T. Firstly, all of the sets are their own subsets, that is, A⊆A,B⊆B,C⊆C,D⊆D.
It follows that B⊂A because of 2∈A and 6∈A. Since 2 is not belongs to C and D. that's why B is not a subset of C and B is not a subset of D.
Taking into account that 4∈A and 6∈A, we conclude that C⊂A. By analogy, since 4∈D and 6∈D, we conclude that C⊂D.
Since |A|>|B|∣A∣>∣B∣ and |A|>|C|,∣A∣>∣C∣, we conclude that A is not a subset of B and A is not a subset of C.
Taking into account that |D|>|B|∣D∣>∣B∣ and |D|>|C|,∣D∣>∣C∣, we conclude that D is not a subset of B and D is not a subset of C. Since,2 not belongs to D that's why A is not a subset of D.
Since 8 not belongs to A, D is not a subset of A.
Overall, The Set C is the subset of A and D.

can anyone answer this ?
Answer:
[tex]\sf t_{20}= 0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Arithmetic sequence:[tex]\sf \boxed{\bf n^{th} \ term = a + (n-1)d}\\\\\text{Here, a is the first term ; d is the common difference }[/tex]
6th term is 14 ⇒ [tex]\sf t_6 = 14[/tex]
a + (6 - 1)d = 14
a + 5d = 14 --------------(I)
14th term is 6 ⇒[tex]\sf t_{14} = 6[/tex]
a + (14-1)d = 6
a + 13d = 6 ----------------(II)
Subtract equation (II) from equation(I)

Step-by-step explanation:
The number of terms of an Arithmetic progressions has the formular.
Tn = a + ( n - 1 ) d
From the question,
6th term = 14
14th term = 6
Therefore,
a + 5d = 14 -----------(1)
a + 13d = 6 ----------(2)
subtracting
-8d = 8
dividing bothsides by -8
[tex] \frac{ - 8d}{ - 8} = \frac{8}{ - 8} \\ d = - 1[/tex]
Therefore,
common difference= -1
substituting the value of d into equation (1)
a + 5 ( -1) = 14
a - 5 = 14
a = 14 + 5 = 19
First term = 19
For the 20th term
T 20 = a + 19d
19 + 19 ( -1 )
19-19 = 0
Therefore,

Answer:
35.7 megabytes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first find 10% of the percent needed. If it is 234 megabytes and 10% has downloaded so far, we conclude that 10% of the download is 23.4 megabytes (since we move the decimal point one spot to the left to find ten percent).
To get to 15% of the percent needed, let's split 10% in half to get the amount of megabytes per every 5%.
23.4/2 = 11.7
We can now conclude that 5% = 11.7. Therefore, 15% will equal (23.4 + 11.7) 35.1 megabytes.
To find the remaining 3.5% left of the percent needed, we use a calculator.
3.5% x 18 = 0.63.
We will add that to the 35.1 megabytes, but we need to round to the nearest tenth, as the question stated. Therefore, we round to 0.6, add it to 35.1, to get a total of 35.7 megabytes.
For 18.5% of the download, it will be 35.7 megabytes.

The correct option is D: G(x) = -5x².
The equation of G(x) will be -5x² after vertically stretching and flipping.
What is meant by stretching vertically and flipping?A function change called a stretch or compression makes a graph bigger or narrower without moving it horizontally or vertically.
Vertical stretching: A function's graph is stretched or compressed vertically in proportion to the graph of the original function when we multiply it by a positive constant. We obtain a vertical stretch if the constant is bigger than 1, and a vertical compression if the constant is between 0 and 1.flipped over the x-axis: In order to reflect over the X axis, one must negate the value of each point's y-coordinate while maintaining its x-value. The graph reflects across the x-axis prior to transformation when the parent function f(x) = x² has an a-value smaller than 0.

A square garden has sides of length 10 ft. If topsoil costs $5 / cubic foot, how much will it cost to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden?
Cost to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden is $1000.
The quantity of square units required to completely fill a square is known as the area of a square. The region that lies inside the confines of a flat item or a two-dimensional figure is generally referred to as the area. Measurements are made in square units, with square meters serving as the reference unit
Area of a Square = Side × Side.
Therefore, the area of square = Side square units.

The cost need to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden is $1000
According to the given statement
we have given that the
side length of the square garden is 10ft.
topsoil cost per foot is $5
And we have to find the cost which required to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden.
So,
The side length of the square garden is 10ft.
Now, the volume of the cube is (a)^2
And
Total volume of cube = 10*10
Total volume of cube = 100 per square foot.
Now, we find the cost required for a topsoil.
Cost required to put a topsoil of 1 foot in the total volume of cube = volume*cost
So,
Cost required to put a topsoil of 1 foot in the total volume of cube = 1000*5
Cost required to put a topsoil of 1 foot in the total volume of cube = $5000
if we put a topsoil of 0.5 feet then
The cost required = $5000/0.5
The cost required = $1000.
So, The cost need to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden is $1000

The rule for this sequence is 'multiply by -6'.
Verification ↓
-3*(-6)[tex]\stackrel\checkmark{=}[/tex]18
18*(-6)[tex]\stackrel\checkmark{=}[/tex]-108
So the rule for the sequence is 'multiply by -6'
And the Common ratio is -6.
Hope that made sense !!

✏✏[tex]\large\textsf{Given:-}[/tex]
The first 3 terms of a sequence :- [tex]\large\textsf{-3, 18, -108}[/tex]✏✏ [tex]\large\textsf{To Find:-}}[/tex]
The rule for the sequence = ?✏✏ [tex]\large\textsf{Solution Steps:-}[/tex]
What do we multiply each term of the sequence by to arrive at the next one ? we can find that by dividing the last term of the sequence, -108, by the middle term, 18:-
[tex]\large{\sf{\longmapsto{-108\div18=-6}[/tex]
Now divide 18 by the first term (-3) :-
[tex]\longmapsto\sf{18\div-3=-6}[/tex]
we arrived at -6 twice, So the rule for this sequence is:- "Multiply by -6, And you'll arrive at the next term"
