F is located on the numbe<u>r 4.5</u><u> </u>on the number line.

<h3></h3><h3>Where does point F lie on the number line?</h3>

We know that point D is at -6

Point E is at 8.

Point F is between D and E, such that the ratio:

DF:FE is 3:1

So if we divide the distance between D and E in 4 parts, 3 of these parts are DF, and one of these parts is FE.

First, the distance between E and D is:

distance = 8 - (-6) = 14 units.

Now, if we divide that by 4, we get:

14/4 = 3.5

Then we have:

DF = 3*(3.5) = 10.5

This means that F is at 10.5 units to the right of D, then:

F = D + 10.5 = -6 + 10.5 = 4.5

F is located on the numbe<u>r 4.5</u><u> </u>on the number line.

Ahat [919]

The percent increase in enrollment is 6 %

The operation used in first step is finding the difference between final value and initial value

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that This year, 1,272 students enrolled in night courses a a local college

Last year only 1,200 students enrolled.

To find: percent increase in the enrollment

The percent increase between two values is the difference between a final value and an initial value, expressed as a percentage of the initial value.

<em><u>The percent increase is given as:</u></em>

\text { percentage increase }=\frac{\text { final value - initial value}}{\text { initial value }} \times 100

Here initial value (last year) = 1200 and final value(this year) = 1272

Substituting the values in above formula,

\begin{aligned}&\text { percentage increase }=\frac{1272-1200}{1200} \times 100\\\\&\text { percentage increase }=\frac{72}{1200} \times 100=6\end{aligned}

Thus percent increase is 6 %
