A geometric sequence is where you multiply by a constant number to get the next number.
An arithmetic sequence is where you add by a constant number to get the next number.
In the sequence 2, 10, 50, 250, the difference between the numbers are different, but when you multiply each number by 5, you get the next number.
This means that this is a geometric sequence.
The next term would be 250 x 5 which is 1250.
Answer:
24 g butter
12 g sugar
36 g flour
Step-by-step explanation:
The recipe makes 30 shortbread fingers.
She wants to make 6 fingers.
6/30 = 1/5
She wants to make 1/5 of the recipe, so she needs 1/5 of each ingredient's amount.
Divide each amount by 5.
Recipe:
Makes 30 30/5 = 6 Makes 6
120 g butter 120/5 = 24 24 g butter
60 g sugar 60/5 = 12 12 g sugar
180 g flour 180/5 = 36 36 g flour
Answer:
idk................ 40?
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok this is a very question that can solved very easily. So we know that there three numbers, and they are consecutive, this means that they are all one bigger than the number before so for example 1,2, and 3 or 20, 21, and 22. These numbers are called consecutive. Now let's just pretend that the answer to this question is the variable "x". Now x is the smallest number in all the three numbers.
Using our knowledge of consecutive numbers we can say that the next to numbers will be one more than the number before so:
(x+1) and (x+2)
So we have our three numbers: x , x+1 , and x+2. Now let's set these numbers equal to 177.
177 = x + x + 1 + x + 2 → Combine like terms.
177 = 3x + 3 → Subtract 3 from both sides.
174 = 3x → Divide both sides by 3
58 = x
So that means that our first and smallest number is going to be 58 our second number will be +1 so 59 and our third number will be +2 so 60.
So the three numbers will be 58, 59, and 60.
Hope this helped.
