Ratio of blue to green sweets is 2:7 Ration of green to red sweets is 3:1 There are less than 140 sweets in the bag Greatest amount of red sweets

35 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of blue to green sweets is 2:7 Ration of green to red sweets is 3:1 There are less than 140 sweets in the bag Greatest amount of red sweets

Ration of green to red sweets is 3:1

Total Proportion = 3 + 1 = 4

Total number of sweet = > 140 sweets

The greatest amount of red sweets =

1/4 × 140 = 35 sweets

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
