If arithmetic, then there is a common difference
if geometric, then there is a common ratio
to find the common ratio or difference
if you subtract successive terms from each other, they should have the same result if it is aritmetic
if you divide successive terms by each other, they should have the same result if it is geometric
2,3 and 5
3-2=1
5-3=2
2≠1
not aritmetic
3/2=1.5
5/3=1.66666
1.5≠1.6666
not geometric
she is wrong
For the first one at the top it’s 300 and 575 then going down it’s 17.21, 63.33, and then 184.68
Answer:
12,400
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the current employees be x
65% increase in number = 0.65x
If the total number of employees after the increase is 20,460, then;
x + 0.65x = 20,460
1.65x = 20,460
x = 20,460/1.65
x = 12,400
Hence the current number of employees is 12,400
Answer:
x = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
To find f(g(x)) substitute x = g(x) into f(x), that is
f(g(x))
= f(x + 1)
= 2(x + 1)² ← expand using FOIL
= 2(x² + 2x + 1) ← distribute
= 2x² + 4x + 2
To find g(f(x)) substitute x = f(x) into g(x), that is
g(f(x))
= g(2x²)
= 2x² + 1
----------------------------------------------------------
Equating gives
2x² + 4x + 2 = 2x² + 1 ( subtract 2x² + 1 from both sides )
4x + 1 = 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
4x = - 1 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = -
