Answer:
To determine the common ratio of a geometric sequence. You just need to divide any two consecutive terms on it. You can see below that all of them have the same quotient.
1.2 / 1.5 = 0.8
0.96 / 1.2 = 0.8
0.768 / 0.96 = 0.8
.
Decimal form = 0.8
Fraction form = 4/5
.
Check:
1.5 x 0.8 = 1.2
1.5 x 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 = 1.2
Therefore, the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768 is 0.8 or 4/5.
Option b 10.44 ...........
We will start with our guess of 12, since 12*2 = 24.
Divide 24 by 12; 24/12=2. Average this answer with our guess: (12+2)/2=7. This is our new guess.
24/7=3.428571429. Average this with our guess of 7: (3.428571429+7)/2=5.214285715. This is our new guess.
24/5.214285715=4.602739726. Averaging with our guess: (4.602739726+5.214285715)/2=4.90851272. New guess!
24/4.90851272=4.889464766. Averaging with our guess: (4.889464766+4.90851272)/2=4.898988743. New guess! You can see as we go through our guesses are closer and closer to the same number...)
24/4.898988743=4.898970228. Averaging: (4.898970228+4.898988743)/2=4.898979486. At this point our answer is the same every time down to the hundred-thousandth. Our estimate to the nearest hundredth would be 4.90.
Answer:
6 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
if he has 11 cups, and it takes 11/6 cups per batch, then he should be able to make 6 batches.
11 cups=66/6 cups
66/6 ÷ 11/6=6
