Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the common difference d between consecutive terms of the sequence
8 - 6 = 10 - 8 = 2
This indicates that the sequence is arithmetic with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 6 and d = 2, thus
= 6 + 2(n - 1) = 6 + 2n - 2 = 2n + 4 ← explicit formula
Hence
= (2 × 130) + 4 = 260 + 4 = 264
Answer:
There are 60 boys and 80 girls in Franklin School.
Step-by-step explanation:
"franklin school has 3 boys for every 4 girls in the fifth grade." means that the ratio of boys to girls is: 3:4
It can also be written as 3/4
Also given
Total number of students: 140
We will use ratios to find the number of boys and girls in shool.
First of all, we have to calculate the sum of ratio which is: 3+4 = 7
Let b be the number of boys and g be the number of girls
Then
Hence,
There are 60 boys and 80 girls in Franklin School.
