38.4/x=100/32.5
multiple both sides of the equation by x
38.4=3.07692307692*x
divide both sides by the big number to get x
38.4/(big number)=x
x=12.48
32x + 53 = 501
-53 - 53
<u>32x</u> = <u>448</u>
32 32
x = 14
Answer:
Common Ratio = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Points: (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25)
Required
Determine the common ratio
The points can be rewritten as:
x --- f(x)
1 ---- 1
2 --- 2.5
3 ---- 6.25
The data under the x column are the domain of the function and in this case, they are not needed;
To calculate common ration, Lena should use data in function f(x) column
Common ratio is calculated by dividing a term by the previous term;
Hence;
Common Ratio = 2.5/1 or 6.25/2.5
Common Ratio = 2.5 or 2.5
Notice that, the results are the same;
Hence, the usable common ratio is 2.5
Combine (subtract) 3n and 2n to get 1n or n. Then you have n -5n =10n add 5n to 10n to get 15n. divide the 15 from n and your answer is n=15
