Answer:

Common ratio = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

2nd term = a1r and 3rd = a1r^2

So (a1)^2 r^3 = 972

a1 = 3/4, so

(3/4)^2 r^3 = 972

r^3 = 972 / 9/16

r^3 = 972*16/9 = 1728

r = 12.

Diya spent 2/5 of her money on a dress and 1/2 of the reminder on a doll. She spent $8 more o the dress than the doll. How much

Elena L [17]

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 — dress

3/5 — remainder

1/2 of remainder = 1/2 × 3/5 = 3/10 — doll

rewrite fraction spent on dress: 4/10

dress - doll = $8

4/10 - 3/10 = 1/10

1/10 = $8

fraction of money left = 10/10 - 4/10 - 3/10

= 3/10

amount of money left = $8 × 3
