Sherrie opened 5 bags of peanuts and counted a total of 75. at this rate, how many peanuts would be in 8 bags.

There should be 120 peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve this problem

5 bags

75 peanuts

5 bags           8 bags

 =

75 peanuts      x peanuts

Using cross products

5x = 75*8

5x = 600

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 600/5

x = 120

step-by-step explanation: a

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .
