The answer is:  [C]:  -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔ .
________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________
<span>
Note that in this correct Answer choice "C" given, we have the following arrangement of numbers:
_____________________________________________________
   </span>→ -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔ ; 
______________________________________
We are asked to find the "Answer choice" (or, perhaps, "Answer choices?") given that show a set of numbers arranged in order from "least to greatest"; that is, starting with a value that is the smallest number in the arrangement, and sequentially progressing, in order from least to greatest, with the largest (greatest) number in the arrangement appearing as the last number in the arrangement.
______________________
Note the EACH of the 4 (four) answer choices given consists of an arrangement with ONLY one negative number, "- 0.7".  Only TWO of the answer choices—Choices "B" and "C"—have an arrangement beginning with the number, "-0.7 ";  So we can "rule out" the "Answer choices: [A] and [D]".
________________________
Let us examine: Answer choice: [B]: <span>-0.7, 0.35, ⅕, ⅔ ; 
</span>_________________________
Note: The fraction, "⅕" = "2/10"; or, write as: 0.2 .
________________________________________
          The fraction, "⅔" = 0.6666667 (that is 0.6666... repeating; so we often               see a "final decimal point" rounded to "7" at some point.
___________________________________________
Through experience, one will be able to automatically look at these 2 (two) fractions and immediately know their "decimal equivalents".
____________________________________________
Otherwise, one can determine the "decimal form" of these values on a calculator by division:
_________________________
→ ⅕ = 1/5 = 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2
_________________________
→ ⅔ = 2/3 = 2 ÷ 3 = 0.6666666666666667
___________________________________
For Answer choice: [B], we have:
______________________________
→   -0.7, 0.35, ⅕, ⅔ ; 
_________________________
→ So, we can "rewrite" the arrangement of "Answer choice [B]" as:
___________________________________________
    →  -0.7, 0.35, 0.2, 0.666666667 ;
________________________________
    → And we can see that "Answer choice: [B]" is INCORRECT; because
"0.2" (that is, "⅕"), is LESS THAN "0.35".  So, "0.35" should not come BEFORE "⅕" in the arrangement that applies correctly to the problem.
_______________________________________
Let us examine: Answer choice: [C]:  -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, 0.666666667 .
____________________________________________
→ Remember from our previous— and aforementioned—examination of "Answer Choice: [B]" ; that:
____________________________ 
→ ⅕ = 0.2 ;   and:
→ ⅔ = 0.666666667
_______________________
So, given:
____________
→ Answer choice: [C]: -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔ ; 
______________________
→ We can "rewrite" this given "arrangement", substituting our known "decimal values for the fractions:
______________________________
→ Answer choice: [C]: -0.7, 0.2, 0.35, 0.666666667 ;
_________________________________________
→ As mentioned above, this sequence starts with "-0.7", which is the ONLY negative number in the sequence; as such, the next positive number is correct.  Nonetheless, "0.2" (or, "(⅕") is the next number in the sequence, and is greater than "-0.7". The next number is "0.35. "0.35" is greater than "⅕" (or, "0.2"). Then next number is "(⅔)" (or, "0.666666667").
   "(⅔)"; (or, "0.666666667") is greater than 0.35.
____________________________
This set of numbers: "-0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔" ; is arranged in order from least to greatest; which is "Answer choice: [C]: -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔" ; the correct answer.

The number of rainbow smelt in Lake Michigan had an average rate of change of −19.76 per year between 1990 and 2000. The bloater
mojhsa [17]
Let x =  number of years between 1990 and  2000.

Rainbow smelt:
Initial population = 227
Average yearly rate of change = -19.76
The linear function that models the population is
y₁ = 227 - 19.76x

Bloater fish
Initial population = 1052
Average yearly rate of change = -92.57
The linear function that models the population is
y₂ = 1052 - 92.57x

When the two populations are equal, then y₁ = y₂.
That is
227 - 19.76x = 1052 - 92.57x
(92.57 - 19.76)x = 1052 - 227
72.81x = 825
x = 11.33 years
   = 11 years, 0.33*12 months
   = 11 years, 4 months
Add x to 1990 to obtain the year April 2011.

Answer:
x = 11.33 years.
This occurs in April 2001.

Explain this diagram.

The shape that we have here is sued to show the infinite geometric progression.

<h3>What is geometric progression?</h3>

This is the sequence of numbers that has all the other values in the sequence gotten by the multiplication of a certain factor

In this question or the shape we can see that the triangle is made up of smaller other triangles embedded in it.

The area of the traingle that is in the red color is seen to have been made up of 1/3 of the total triangles that we have in the shape. This can be seen to be similar as the triangles that are represented by the green and the blue color.

Putting a  lot of triangles inside one big triangle gives up a pictorial diagram on how to add infinite amount of things up.
