If you compare table values to answer choices, you can see right away that several don't work. The number of centimeters is greater than the number of inches, so adding to or multiplying the number of centimeters by some number more than 1 will not give you the smalller number that is inches.
While it may work for the first number (5 inches) to add 7.7 to get the first number of centimeters (12.7), you have to know that you can only add like to like. You can only add inches to inches (getting a result of inches), or centimeters to centimeters (getting a result of centimeters). From the point of view of the units involved, it is <em>nonsensical</em> to add a pure number to a number of inches and expect to get a number of centimeters.
So, we're down to the second choice:
- The number of inches is multiplied by 2.54 to find the number of centimeters.
_____
To find the pattern in the table, you can ...
- observe that the inch values differ by 1
- observe that the centimeter values differ by 2.54
- realize that the constant differences mean the relation between inches and centimeters is linear, and that a change in an inch value of 1 inch is multiplied by 2.54 to find the corresponding change in centimeter value.

Answer:
0.007%
Step-by-step explanation:
4000/28=0.007%
So you have to decrease £30 by 20%
To do this, an easy way would be to first take away 100% from 20% because you are DECREASING :
100 - 20 = 80
Then divide your answer by 100 :
80 / 100 = 0.8
This means 0.8 is going to be your multiplier so you do
0.8 * 30 = 24
Answer = £24
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by :
...(1)
We need to find the 200th term of the sequence.
Put n = 200 in equation (1)
So, the 200th term of the sequence is 418.
The mean is 10,
The median is 10,
And there is no mode.
The mean of a set of numbers is the sum divided by the number of terms,
7+15+12+6+10=50
There are 5 numbers in the set,
50/5=10.
10 is the mean.
Arrange the data in an ascending order and the median is the middle value. If the number of values is an even number, the median will be the average of the two middle numbers,
6, 7, 10, 12, 15,
10 is in the middle so it is the median.
The mode is the element that occurs most in the data set. In this case, all elements occur only once, so there is no mode.
Just so you don’t confuse the data with the group sets,
The actual data set is 7, 15, 12, 6, and 10
This data paired with score column or group set means that,
10 people got a score of 1-10
6 people got a score of 11-20
12 people got a score of 21-30
15 people got a score of 31-40
And 7 people got a score of 41-50 :)
