never [62]

All of the given questions(#65 to #70) are AP(s).

Formula to be used: a(n) = a(1) + (n - 1)d

Pronounced as:

nth term = 1st term + (n - 1)d, where d is the common difference.

*d = difference of any two consecutive terms.

65):

1st term = 2, d = 6 - 2 = 4

Therefore,

11th term = 2 + (11 - 1)4 = 42

66):

1st term = 5, d = 15 - 5 = 10

Therefore,

16th term = 5 + (16 - 1)10 = 155

67):

1st term = 19, d = 39 - 19 = 20

Therefore,

21st term = 19 + (21 - 1)20 = 419

68):

1st term = 8, d = 38 - 8 = 30

Therefore,

36th term = 8 + (36 - 1)30 = 1058

69):

1st term = 1/2, d = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

Therefore,

101st term = 1/2 + (101 - 1)1/2 = 101/2

70):

1st term = 0.75, d = 1.50 - 0.75 = 0.75

Therefore,

151st term = 0.75 + (151 - 1)(0.75) = 113.25

Write two ratios equivalent to 24 : 9.
notsponge [240]

Answer:

8:3

16:6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's check if 9 and 24 have any common factor. If they do have any common ones, we must find the GCF (greatest common factor).

Factors of 9: 1, 3, 9

Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

The common factors both of the numbers share and 1 and 3. To find the GCF, simply compare one of the factors to the other.

1 < 3

Now that we know the GCF, we can divide the two numbers in the ratio 24 : 9 by it (3).

24:9

24/3:9/3

<u>8:3</u>

Now that our ratio is simplified, it's going to be much easier to find more ratios that are equivalent. <u>8:3</u> is already one equivalent ratio, but if we multiply each number in the ratio by any other number, we can get a new equivalent ratio. Let's multiply each number in the ratio by 2:

<u>8:3</u>

8 ⋅ 2:3 ⋅ 2

<u>16:6</u>

<u></u>

So, another equivalent ratio to 24:9 (and <u>8:3</u>) is <u>16:6</u>.
