Let x be the total number of person in the police force
24/100 × x = 72
x = 72/0.24
Therefore x = 300

The # of males = 300 - 72 = 228

<span>Let x be the total of people on the police force 24x=72 Divide both sides by 24 x=300 since there is 300 people on the force and 72 are ladies. We subtract 300-72= 228 So there is 228 male police officers :)

Givem the geometric sequence where à1=2 and the common ratio is 4, what is domain for N
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The domain for N is All integers where n ≥ 1

<u>Solution:</u>

According to statement a1 = 2 and r = 4. This shows that r is greater than 1.

If r is greater than 1 than it includes integers greater than 1 or equal to 1. It does not include all the real numbers because real numbers include negative numbers also.

If starting value is 2, if we put n=0, then we get 2, but if we put a negative value than we would get a number which is not a part of our sequence.

Thus the domain of n is All integers where n greater than or equal to 1

x= 32
