Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-values 5, 3, 1 form an arithmetic sequence. The y-values will do the same: 1, 2, a = 1, 2, 3 -- a common difference of +1.

a = 3

What is 5/4, 1 8/25, and 1.3 in least to greatest

stiks02 [169]

$\text{Hey there!}$

$\dfrac{5}{4}, 1\dfrac{8}{25}, \&\ 1.3$

$\text{Least}\rightarrow \text{greatest}$

$\dfrac{5}{4} = 1.25$

$1\dfrac{8}{25}=\dfrac{33}{25}= 1.32$

$\text{1.3 =}\dfrac{13}{10}$

$\text{Now, that we simplified the fraction to a decimal/ decimal to a fraction}\\\text{we can solve for the answer you're looking for!}$

$\boxed{\bf{Answer: \dfrac{5}{4}}\rightarrow1.3\rightarrow 1\dfrac{8}{25}}\checkmark$

$\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}$
