Answer:

Let 'x' and 'y' be two different numbers.

Leila says that 75% of a number will always be greater than 50% of a number. The inequality that represents this statement is the following:

0.75x > 0.5y

Let x = 100 and y=200. We have that:

0.75(100) > 0.5(200)

75 > 100 ❌ INCORRECT ❌

Given that we found a case in which 75% of a number is not greater than 50% of a number, we can conclude that Leila's claim is incorrect.

Since you know that the hose will fill the whole pool in 8 minutes you know it will fill 1/8 of the pool per minute. In 5 minutes it will fill up 5/8 of the pool. This will make your equation 5/8 +5r=1. Solving for r will give you 3 parts/40 minutes

Pada suatu deret geometri diketahui suku ke-3 = 18 dan suku ke-6 = 486. suku pertama pada deret tersebut adalah...
Digiron [165]
A . r^(3-1) = 18
a . r^2 = 18...... (i)

a . r^(6-1) = 486
a . r^5 = 486 ...... (ii)

dengan membuat perbandingan dari kedua persamaan diperoleh:
r^2/r^5 = 18/486
1/r^3 = 1/27 
r^3 = 27
r = akar pangkat 3 dari 27 
r = 3

dari persamaan <span>a . r^2 = 18...... (i)
                          a . 3^2 = 18
                          a . 9 = 18
                          a      = 18/9 = 2</span>
