$\text{Hey there!}$

$\text{Is 120\% of 100 larger than 100?}$

$\boxed{\text{The answer is: YES it is larger than 100}}\checkmark$

$\text{Reason}\downarrow\\\text{The word "of" means multiply in mathematical terms}\\\text{120\% = 1.2}\\\text{Re-ask yourself: Is 1.2}\times\text{100 larger than 100?}\\\bf{1.2\times100 = 120}\\\text{120 is LARGER/BIGGER than 100}$

$\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}$

Answer:

$-1,4,-7,10,...$ neither

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ geometric progression

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ arithmetic progression

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

sequences: $-1,4,-7,10,...$

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$

To find: which of the given sequence forms arithmetic progression, geometric progression or neither of them

Solution:

A sequence forms an arithmetic progression if difference between terms remain same.

A sequence forms a geometric progression if ratio of the consecutive terms is same.

For $-1,4,-7,10,...$ :

$4-(-1)=5\\-7-4=-11\\10-(-7)=17\\So,\,\,4-(-1)\neq -7-4\neq 10-(-7)$

Hence,the given sequence does not form an arithmetic progression.

$\frac{4}{-1}=-4\\\frac{-7}{4}=\frac{-7}{4}\\\frac{10}{-7}=\frac{-10}{7}\\So,\,\,\frac{4}{-1}\neq \frac{-7}{4}\neq \frac{10}{-7}$

Hence,the given sequence does not form a geometric progression.

So, $-1,4,-7,10,...$ is neither an arithmetic progression nor a geometric progression.

For $192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ :

$\frac{24}{192}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{3}{24}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}=\frac{1}{8}\\So,\,\,\frac{24}{192}=\frac{3}{24}=\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}$

As ratio of the consecutive terms is same, the sequence forms a geometric progression.

For $-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ :

$-18-(-25)=-18+25=7\\-11-(-18)=-11+18=7\\-4-(-11)=-4+11=7\\So,\,\,-18-(-25)=-11-(-18)=-4-(-11)$

As the difference between the consecutive terms is the same, the sequence forms an arithmetic progression.

Basketball player made 36 free throws in 16 games. Find the ratio of free throws to games.

Misha Larkins [42]

36 free throws , 16 games
ratio of free throws to games is 36:16 which reduces to 9:4

u have to pay attention to the wording of problems such as these..because if it would have asked for the ratio of games to free throws, it would have been 16:36 = 4:9

Which is the value of g(-5) if g(x) = 3.40 – 8

Mila [183]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have written g(x) correctly then g(-5) = 3.40 - 8 = -4.6

If you meant to write g(x) = 3.40x - 8, then g(-5) = -25
