Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing numbers by fractions, we can simply multiply the umber by the reciprocal of the decimal. So,

4 ÷ 1/5 = 4 × (reciprocal of 1/5)

A reciprocal of a number is the same number written under 1. aka, 1 divided by that number, which simply is flipping the numerator and denominator of a number.

So the reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1 = 5.

So 4 ÷ 1/5 = 4 × 5.

So your answer is 5.

hope it was useful!!! ;)

what is the common ratio for the geometric sequence below, written as a fraction? 768, 480, 300, 187.5, …

Crazy boy [7]

Let

$a1=768\\a2=480\\a3=300\\a4=187.5$

Step $1$

Find $\frac{a2}{a1}$

$\frac{a2}{a1} =\frac{480}{768}$

Divide by $96$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{480}{768} =\frac{\frac{480}{96}}{\frac{768}{96}} \\ \\ \frac{480}{768}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a2=a1*\frac{5}{8}$

Step $2$

Find $\frac{a3}{a2}$

$\frac{a3}{a2} =\frac{300}{480}$

Divide by $60$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{300}{480} =\frac{\frac{300}{60}}{\frac{480}{60}} \\ \\ \frac{300}{480}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a3=a2*\frac{5}{8}$

Step $3$

Find $\frac{a4}{a3}$

$a4=187.5 \\ a4=187\frac{1}{2} \\ \\ a4=\frac{375}{2}$

$\frac{a4}{a3} =\frac{\frac{375}{2}}{300} \\ \\ \frac{a4}{a3} =\frac{375}{600}$

Divide by $75$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{375}{600} =\frac{\frac{375}{75}}{\frac{600}{75}} \\ \\ \frac{375}{600}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a4=a3*\frac{5}{8}$

In this problem

The geometric sequence formula is equal to

$a(n+1)=a(n)*\frac{5}{8}\\$

For $n\geq 1$

therefore

the answer is

the common ratio for the geometric sequence above is $\frac{5}{8}$

The number of members on an organization increases by an average of 125 members annually. There were 3,875 members in 1971. Choo

Lena [83]

Answer:

Mn = Mn-1 + 125 for n > 1 ; M1 = 3,875

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they tell us after 1970, the first data would be that of 1971 and also that if we started since 1970, we do not know the data of 1969, therefore answer B is correct.

Replacing:

Let M1 = 1971 then Mn-1, that is M0 = 1970, we know that the population of 1970 the population is 3750, because it would be 125 less than the subsequent year, and in 1975 there are 3875. Therefore:

in n = 1

M1 = M0 + 125

3875 = 3750 + 125

this gives an equality, thus fulfilling the equation.
