4/5 is already simplified so its going to be 4/5 or .45
Answer:
Jim's claim is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Total survey=100 people
Morning exercise=35 people
Afternoon exercise=45 people
Night exercise=20 people
Morning exercise : Total survey
=35 : 100
Afternoon exercise : Total survey
=45 : 100
Night exercise : Total survey
=20 : 100
Jim's claim is correct because in finding the ratio, one has to relate it with the total people involved in the survey.
Tara's claim however seems to relate one variable with two other variables
Example:
35 : 55
Morning exercise : (morning exercise + night exercise)
35 : (35+20)
35 : 55
Answer:
X = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Pulling out like terms :
1.1 Pull out like factors :
-x - 12 = -1 • (x + 12)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
2.1 Solve : -x-12 = 0
Add 12 to both sides of the equation :
-x = 12

Compute successive differences of the terms.
If they are all the same, the sequence is arithmetic and the common difference is the difference you have found.
If successive pairs of differences have the same ratio, the sequence is geometric and the common ratio is the ratio you have determined.
Example of arithmetic sequence:
1, 3, 5, 7
Successive differences are 3-1 = 2, 5-3 = 2, 7-5 = 2. All the differences are 2, which is the common difference of the sequence.
Example of geometric sequence:
1, -3, 9, -27
Successive differences are -3-1 = -4, 9-(-3) = 12, -27-9 = -36. These are not the same, so the sequence is not arithmetic. Ratios of successive pairs of differences are 12/-4 = -3, -36/12 = -3. These are the same, so the sequence is geometric with common ratio -3.
