A_n= a₁+(n-1)d

a₁ first term

n terms

d distance between each value

a_n= 12+(405-1)(5)=2032

The first term of the sequence is 12. You can also tell that you’re adding five after the first term.
12+5(x-1)=y
Since you’re not automatically adding it on the first term, you need to subtract one from x.
You could also do this.
7+5x=y
You would still get the same number.
Let’s plug 405 in for x in the equations.
12+5(405-1)
12+5(404)
12+2020
2032
Let’s see if it’s the same thing in the second equation.
7+5(405)
7+2025
2032
The 405th term is 2032.

Write three equivalent ratios

To solve these questions, we do the following:

Whatever is being applied to a part of the ratio must be done on the other part

Solving (9):

$Ratio = \frac{2}{7}$

Multiply through by 2

$Ratio = \frac{2*2}{7*2} = \frac{4}{14}$

Multiply through by 3

$Ratio = \frac{2*3}{7*3} = \frac{6}{21}$

Multiply through by 5

$Ratio = \frac{2*5}{7*5} = \frac{10}{35}$

Hence, the equivalents are: $\frac{4}{14}, \frac{6}{21}, \frac{10}{35}$

Solving (10):

Ratio = 1.5 to 3.5

Multiply by 2

$Ratio = 1.5 * 2\ to\ 3.5 * 2$

$Ratio = 3\ to\ 7$

Multiply by 3

$Ratio = 1.5 * 3\ to\ 3.5 * 3$

$Ratio = 4.5\ to\ 10.5$

Multiply by 4

$Ratio = 1.5 * 4\ to\ 3.5 * 4$

$Ratio = 6\ to\ 14$

Hence, the equivalents are: 3 to 7, 4.5 to 10.5 and 6 to 14

Solving (11):

Ratio = 6.25 to 1.25

Divide by 5

$Ratio = 6.25/5\ to\ 1.25/5$

$Ratio = 1.25\ to\ 0.25$

Multiply by 2

$Ratio = 6.25*2\ to\ 1.25*2$

$Ratio = 12.5\ to\ 2.5$

Multiply by 4

$Ratio = 6.25*4\ to\ 1.25*4$

$Ratio = 25\ to\ 5$

Hence, the equivalents are: 1.25 to 0.25, 12.5 to 2.5 and 25 to 5

Solving (12):

$Ratio = 3 : 3\frac{1}{2}$

Multiply by 2

$Ratio = 3 *2: 3\frac{1}{2}*2$

$Ratio = 6: 7$

Multiply by 4

$Ratio = 3 *4: 3\frac{1}{2}*4$

$Ratio = 12: 14$

Multiply by 6

$Ratio = 3 *6: 3\frac{1}{2}*6$

$Ratio = 18: 21$

Hence, the equivalents are: 6:7, 12:14 and 18:21

Solving (13)

$Ratio = 1\frac{2}{3} : \frac{5}{4}$

Convert mixed fraction to improper fraction

$Ratio = \frac{5}{3} : \frac{5}{4}$

Multiply by 2

$Ratio = \frac{5}{3}*2 : \frac{5}{4}*2$

$Ratio = \frac{10}{3} : \frac{5}{2}$

Multiply by 3

$Ratio = \frac{5}{3}*3 : \frac{5}{4}*3$

$Ratio = 5 : \frac{15}{4}$

Multiply by 12

$Ratio = \frac{5}{3}*12 : \frac{5}{4}*12$

$Ratio = 20 : 15$

Hence, the equivalents are: 10/3:5/2, 5 : 15/4, and 20:15

What is the lower quartile of the following set? 28, 45, 12, 34, 36, 45, 19, 20 28.5 19.5 19 28

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

To find the lower quartile take the number of terms=n=12
to find the lower quartile take the equation (n+1)/4= 3.25
this means that the lower quartile will be at the 3.25th position int he sequence when all the terms are ordered from smallest to largest. so when ordered: 12 19 19 19.5 20 28 28 28.5 34 36 45 45
so the lower quartile is between 19 and 19.5 exactly 19.125
