35% of a number is 17. Work out the number.
Ksivusya [100]
Well first you would set up your ratio, 17/x = 35/100. You are trying to find x. To do so you cross multiply and divide. So first you have 17× 100 which equals 1700. The you divide that number by 35 which is around 48 like you said. I usually just round to the hundredths place so just cut it at 48.57 but to be safe say approximately 48.57

Which sequence is modeled by the graph below?
Maru [420]

We have

a2 = 4

a3 = 2

a4 = 1

 calculate the difference

a3 - a2 = -2

a4 - a3 = -1

 The differences are not equal---------- >the sequence is not arithmetic.

 Getting the ratio:

a3/a2 = 0.5

a4/a3 = 0.5

 The common ratio is 0.5. Using the general form for a geometric series:

an = a1 r^(n-1)

for n = 2---------------- > a2=4

4 = a1 (0.5)^(2-1)

a1 = 8

therefore

an = 8 (1/2)^(n-1)

the answer is an = 8 (1/2)^(n-1)

the answer is none of those indicated in the question
