Answer:
between 6 and 7
Step-by-step explanation:
√39 = 6.244... which is between 6 and 7
also, you do not need a calculator if you know that the sq. rt. of 36 is 6 and the sq. rt. of 49 is 7. 39 is between 36 and 49.
The answer would be the sequence has a common ratio of 4.
The explanation for this would be:
To get the common ratio for get the simplest form of the two numbers, so 12/3 = 4 and 48/12 = 4So we know that their common ratio is 4.
To check:
3 x 4 = 12
12 x 4 = 48
48 x 4 = 192
192 x 4 = 768
For number 16 we need to write the data as a ratio then convert to a unit rate (amount per 1)...
308/14 = x/1
Cross multiply
14x = 308
x = 308/14
x = 22
So the fuel efficiency is
22 miles per 1 gallon or
22/1
For number 17, since the car was driven at 48 mph, we just have to divide distance driven by speed to get how long it took...
288 miles ÷ 48 mph =
6 hours
