If every shelf has the same amount of books, then it can be seen as proportional because one shelf has 43 and 2 have 86, and it keeps going up in a consistent way.
so 43/1 = 86/2 .
Happy studying ^-^
If you are trying to find the slope using only these two points then you should first take note of what your X and Y values are. For instance, 12 & 11 are your X values and -18 & 12 are your Y values. Knowing this you can now find your slope by doing y2-y1/
x2-x1. You will get the fraction -30/1 or -30 which is your slope. Hope that made sense!
we know that given terms were i geometric progression.
which means common ratio is same between two consecutive terms .
here we have 8,40,200,1000.
we know that common ratio =second term/first term =40/8=5.
so each and every terms is multiplied by 5 to get next term for this series the term after 1000 is 5000 =1000*5.
in part b we have another series which is having common ratio of -2.
so we need to multiply with -2 to find next term.
80*(-2)=-160.
for part c the common ratio is -2 .
so we need to multiply with -2 *previous term =-2*16 =-32.
Answer:
15% of 100,000 is 15000, so that would be 100,000 + (15,000*3) = 145,000 after 3 years.
