Hi There!
The answer is multiplying by 11. Throughout the sequence you multiply 11 by the number before to get the next number. For example, the next number in the sequence is 14641 x 11 = 161051.
Hope This Helps :)
What’s the rest of the qurstion?
A) If you only sample people in a sports supply store, your sample will be biased. People in a sports supply store are more likely to be people that belong to a gym.
B) While it does not have necessarily the same amount of bias as sampling people in the sports supply store, people that go to a park are generally more likely to be people that exercise or have a gym membership.
C) Taking a random sample of people in town is a good way to get a non-biased sample. They are not necessarily predisposed to answer your question one way or another.
D) For the same reason as choice A, this is a biased sample.
C is the best choice.
A general equation to use for this situation is y = mx + b.
For this question, we can assume that y is total cost, m is cost per balloon, x is the amount of balloons, and b as the service fee; so we can set the equation up:
y = (4.50)x + 12
And we can further plug in the total cost to find the number of balloons purchased for the party:
79.50 = (4.50)x + 12
Now we can solve for x (number of balloons):
67.50 = (4.50)x
x = 15
The total number of balloons purchased for the party is 15.
.361 .36 .35 1/5
1/5 = .20
