73/260 73 is what percent of 260. also 42/220 42 is what percent of 220. please help.

BlackZzzverrR [31]

73 = x(260). Translate the word "is" as equals, and "of" as multiply. Divide both sides by 260 (as you already did): 73/260 = x

73/260 = 28%. (Move the decimal point two positions to the left).

42/220 = 19%.

What is a8 for the geometric sequence 6,561;−2,187;729;−243;…6,561;−2,187;729;−243;….

VMariaS [17]

Consider a geometric sequence $(u_n)$

let $u_1=a$ and the common ratio be r, then the sequence is constructed as follows:

$u_1, u_2, u_3..... = a, ar, a r^{2}, a r^{3}, ...$

we can observe that each term of the sequence is its previous term * r.

In the given sequence, to find the common ratio we divide 6,561 by −2,187 and get -3. This means that $r= -\frac{1}{3}$

Let the first term $u_1=a=6,561$ ,

then the eighth term is

$u_8=a* r^{7}= 6,561 (- \frac{1}{3} )^{7}= -6,561*( \frac{1}{3} )^{7}= \frac{-6,561}{2187} =-3$

when 3 is subtracted from one third of a number n the result is less than 6. which inequality and solution represents this situa

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

1/3n-3<6

Step-by-step explanation:

One third of a number: 1/3

3 is subtracted from 1/3 of a number n: 1/3n -3

Result is less than 6: less is represented with the symbol <. So, the result of the expression 1/3n-3 is less (<) than 6.

The final expression:

1/3n-3<6
