On rainy days, Francesca likes to ride the stationary bike at the gym. Yesterday, she rode for 30 minutes and covered 6 miles. Today, she plans to ride 8 miles. If she rides at the same rate, how many minutes will it take Francesca to ride today? \( \square \) minutes

5 State which consecutive whole numbers are either side of: \( \begin{array}{lll}\text { a } \sqrt{29} & \text { b } \sqrt{40} & \text { c } \\ \text { 7II }\end{array} \)

Consider the number pattern below: \[ \frac{-3}{5} ; \frac{-6}{9} ; \frac{-9}{13} ; \ldots . \ldots \] Determine the next two terms of the number pattern. Determine the \( n^{\text {th }} \) term of the number pattern.

Calcula las siguientes potencias: \( \begin{array}{ll}\text { a) } 3^{-4}=\frac{\square}{\square} & \text { b) }(3 / 4)^{-2}=\frac{\square}{\square}\end{array} \)

\( \frac{4}{1\times 2}+\frac{4}{2\times 3}+\frac{4}{3\times 4}+...+\frac{4}{23\times 24} \)

8. \( -5 \frac{1}{3}-\left(-6 \frac{2}{3}\right) \)
