Answer:
If 2/5 is 240 then 1/5 is 120..multiply 120 by 5 which is 600 so...
600=total
Then..multiply 120 by 3 which will give the 3/5 boys which is 360 so...
360 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Answer:</em>
n²+3
<em>Explanation:</em>
The differences between the terms are not the same, so this is not "linear". Knowing that the sequence may have started with a 1, you can try subtracting the first number with a number to get 1, and use that number to subtract the rest.
4 - 3 = 1
7 - 3 = 4
12 - 3 = 9
19 - 3 = 16
28 - 3 = 25
In this case, subtracting 3 to all the numbers gave us perfect squares! So this means the nth term has to do with squaring the number and adding three afterward! This can be checked.
√1 = 1
√4 = 2
√9 = 3
√16 = 4
√25 = 5
As we found the values of these terms by subtracting three first and then finding its square root, the nth term will be the opposite; squaring and then adding three! Again, this can be checked!
1² + 3 = 4
2² + 3 = 7
3² + 3 = 12
4² + 3 = 19
5² + 3 = 28
Hope this helps !! :D
