Answer:
12, 8, and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a + d + a + a - d = 24
3a = 24 ⇒ [ a = 8 ]
and (a + d)² + a² + (a - d)² = 224
3a² + 2d² = 224
2d² = 224 - 192 = 32
d² = 16
[ d = ±4 ]
∴ The first three terms to A.P are
a + d = 8 + 4 = 12
a - = 8
a - d = 8 - 4 = 4
∴ Three terms are 12 , 8, and 4
6 donuts
first divide the cost of the donuts by the amount of donuts per box
6 donuts:
2.10 ÷ 6 = .35 per donut
12 donuts
5.40 ÷ 12 = .45 per donut
18 donuts
7.20 ÷ 18 = .40 per donut
24 donuts
12 ÷ 24 = .50 per donut
