Answer:

1/7 or 14.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

30% of 750 = 225  (females who study chemistry)

60% of 2250 = 1350  (males who study chemistry)

1575 = total students studying chemistry

P (female chemistry student) = 225/1575 = 1/7 (simplified)

1/7 = 14.3%

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio between consecutive terms

r = 24 ÷ 16 = 36 ÷ 24 = 54 ÷ 36 = 1.5 = \frac{3}{2}

This indicates the sequence is geometric with nth term ( explicit formula )

f(n) = a₁(r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 16 and r = \frac{3}{2} , then

f(n) = 16 (\frac{3}{2}) ^{n-1} → C

Jenna can type 140 words in 4 minutes. If she needs to type 385 words, how long would this take her? Explain how you got your an
bija089 [108]

Answer:

11 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Because she types only 140 words in 4 minutes so if you add

140+140=280

if you divide

140/4 you get 35

so every minute she types in 35 words. So multiply

11 times 35 and you exactly get 385.
