Answer:

128

Step-by-step explanation:

170 = a₁ (1 − ¼^4) / (1 − ¼)

a₁ = 128

The attendance at a family reunion was 160 people. This was 125% of last year's attendance. How many people attended the reunion
Alex787 [66]
If you would like to know how many people attended the reunion last year, you can calculate this using the following steps:

125% of last year's attendance is 160 people
125% of x is 160
125% * x = 160
125/100 * x = 160     /*100/125
x = 160 * 100 / 125
x = 128 people (last year)

Result: 128 people attended the reunion last year.

$ 0.79 x 3.7

+2370
---------
  2.923----> move the decimal three times to the left because that is how many spaces you have to the right on the actual equation until the next decimal.

The product of 0.79x 3.7 is 2.923. And, the decimal was moved three times to the right of the equation because of the number of spaces until the next decimal which then allows you to move the decimal three times to the left on the product.
