You have the correct answer. It is choice B) -1/4
=======================================================
Explanation:
This is because we're adding -1/4 to each term to get the next one. In other words, we're subtracting 1/4 from each term to get the next one.
- term2 = term1+(d) = 1/2 + (-1/4) = 1/2 - 1/4 = 2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4
- term3 = term2+(d) = 1/4 + (-1/4) = 1/4 - 1/4 = 0
- term4 = term3+(d) = 0 + (-1/4) = 0 - 1/4 = -1/4
- term5 = term4+(d) = -1/4 + (-1/4) = -2/4 = -1/2
and so on.
----------
To find the common difference, all we have to do is subtract any term from its previous one.
For example:
d = (term2) - (term1)
d = (1/4) - (1/2)
d = (1/4) - (2/4)
d = (1-2)/4
d = -1/4
The order of subtraction matters, so we cannot say d = term1-term2.
Upper Tolerance
Remark
The 11/16 is the only thing that will be affected. The three won't go up or down when we add 1/64 so we should just work with the 11/16. We need only add 11/16 and 1/64 together to see what the upper range is. Later on we can add 3 into the mix.
Solution
<u>Upper Limit</u>
Now change the 11/16 into 64. Multiply numerator and denominator or 11/16 by 4
Which results in
With a final result for the fractions of 45/64
So the upper tolerance = 3 45/64
<u>Lower Tolerance</u>
Just follow the same steps as you did for the upper tolerance except you subtract 1/64 like this.
Your answer should be 3 and 43/64
Answer:
250 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Let the total number of students be x
Number of students that plays instrument = 10
Hence
40% of x = 10
40/100*x= 100
0.4x=100
x=100/0.4
x= 250
Hence there are 250 students in total
