A number pattern was created by dividing the previous term by 3. If the starting value for the pattern was 135, which of the fol lowing shows the resulting pattern? A.
135, 45, 30, 5...
B.
135, 45, 15, 5...
C.
135, 45, 15, 2...
D.
135, 45, 30, 25...
1 answer:
Answer:
B. 135, 45, 15, 5...
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll go in order from 135 using the pattern shown (tᵇ/3)
135 / 3
135 = 120 + 15
135/3 = (120/3) + (15/3)
135/3 = 40 + 5
135/3 = 45
All four answer choices show this, so no elimination yet.
45 / 3
45 = 30 + 15
45/3 = (30/3) + (15/3)
45/3 = 10 + 5
45/3 = 15
A and D show 30 as term 3, so they are out.
15 / 3
15/3 = 5
C shows 2 as term 4, so that is also out.
This leaves B as the correct answer.

Answer:
i dont know how your teacher teaches it but in the first question take away the y after the 25. number 2 the start equation would be 55=2x+25 then you would subtract 25 from each side to get 30=2x, the divide by to to get x=15 or she made 15 calls. number 3 is correct.
