Using proportions, it is found that Student 2 is correct, as 37.6/0.1 = 376.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

One tenth is worth 0.1. How many tenths are there in 37.6? The division is given as follows:

37.6/0.1 = 376.

Hence student 2 is correct, as there are 376 tenths in 37.6.

Write each sequence as a function.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: f(n)=3^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Recursive formula : a_{n+1} = 3a_n,, a_1=1

Then,  a_2=a_{1+1} = 3a_1=3(1)=3

a_3=a_{2+1} = 3a_2=3(3)=9

a_4=a_{3+1} = 3a_3=3(9)=27

We can write it as : f(n)=3^{n-1}

such that

n      f(n)=3^{n-1}

1       f(1)=3^{1-1}=1

2       f(2)=3^{2-1}=3^1=3

3       f(3)=3^{3-1}=3^2=9

Hence, the required function: f(n)=3^{n-1}

How to solve inequalities​
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step 1 Eliminate fractions by multiplying all terms by the least common denominator of all fractions.

Step 2 Simplify by combining like terms on each side of the inequality.

Step 3 Add or subtract quantities to obtain the unknown on one side and the numbers on the other.

Step 4 Divide each term of the inequality by the coefficient of the unknown. If the coefficient is positive, the inequality will remain the same. If the coefficient is negative, the inequality will be reversed.

Step 5 Check your answer.
