Hi!
If the pattern starts off with 5 going to 10, then that would be multiplying by 2. Then, from 10 to 30 would be multiplying by 3. From 30 to 60 would be 2, and 60 to 180 would be 3. So, the pattern is multiply by 2, then multiply by 3, then by 2, then by 3, and so on. So, if we multiply 180 by 2, we get 360, the answer.
Hope this helps!
For this case we must find the solution of the following expression:
If we isolate a term and we equate to zero, we have:
Subtracting 7 on both sides of the equation we have:
Thus, the solution of the expression is given by:
ANswer:
300 cookies were ordered to start.
We can tell this because we know 12% is equal to 36. Because this is true, we can set up a proportion to solve. All proportions can be set up with the small number on top and the total on the bottom. This will help you solve for the missing number, which is in this case the total number of cookies. Let x be the total number of cookies.
Percentage/total percentage = cookies/cookies total
12/100 = 36/x
Now we can cross multiply to solve.
(100)(36) = (12)(x) ----> multiply
3600 = 12x ---> divide by 12
300 = x
If you would like to order the following numbers from least to greatest, you can do this using the following steps:
<span>- 40, 1250, - 6.44, 0.2
</span>- 40 < - 6.44 < 0.2 < 1250
The correct result would be <span>- 40 < - 6.44 < 0.2 < 1250.</span>
2:3:1....added = 6
2/6(72) = 144/6 = 24
3/6(72) = 216/6 = 36
1/6(72) = 72/6 = 12
ratio is now 24:36:12
