We know that this is a geometric sequence. Keep in mind that in a geometric sequence, the next term is found by shamelessly multiplying it by "some number", namely the "common ratio".
therefore, if you divide any "next term" by the "previous term", the quotient will just be that "some number", thus, if 1.5 ÷ 7.5 will give it to us, and is, yeap, you guessed it, is 2.
you can check say 3 ÷ 1.5 or 6 ÷ 3, you'll see it.
so, we know the common ratio is 2, and the first term is 0.75, so
Answer:
30 students
Step-by-step explanation:
3 students = 10% of the class.
x students = 90% of the class.
(If more, less divides. Let x be the subject. Since we know 10% of the class already, we have to find the remaining 90% that is 100% - 10% = 90%.)
x = 90%/ 10% × 3 students. ( the percentage signs cancel out and so do the zero's.)
x= 9/1 × 3 students ( 9/1 is the same as 9)
x= 27 students
(To find the total, you must add the 10% of the students to the remaining 90% of the students in the class.)
Total number of students in the class = 27 students + 3 students
= 30 students
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
6 inches enlarged by 1.5 = 9 inches
9 inches enlarged by 1.5 = 13.5 inches
Area would be 9x13.5=
121.5 inches for the area
Hope this helps you out.
