A police department reported that approximately 5% of the alarm calls they get each day are real emergencies and not false alarms. If they receive 120 alarm calls in one day, about how many of them would be false alarms?

Well, if 5% of them are real, that means 95% of the calls they get each day are false alarms.  

If we set up our inequality and multiply (Which i'm assuming you know how to do) We would get 114. Therefore, 114 calls would be false alarms.

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.
