Answer:

12, 8, and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Given

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

The cell phone company decided to collect similar data but this time they collected information of texting speed according to ag
Ludmilka [50]

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know, Scatter plots resembles line graphs in that they are plotted on the x and y axis and the purpose of a scatter plot is to shows if the variables are related to each other. If yes, they can draw a line of best fit which can expose or go through most of the points in the plot.

Given the information in the question, we know:

"they collected information of texting speed according to age"

=> We have 2 variables here which are age and (texting speed)

Step 1:

  • Label the x-axis the input variable (age)
  • Label the y-axis the output variable (texting speed)

Step 2: Plot the points according to age and texting speed

Hence, from that plot, it could have two cases in the relation of age and texting speed which are "the more time, more text is written", or "the less time, more text is written".

Please help me... the perimeter of square WXYZ is 20 units. The coordinates of three of the vertices are W(3,2), X(3,7), and Y(8
Blababa [14]
Okay, so we know that the perimeter of the square is 20. Since a square has 4 equal sides to find the length of one side, 20/4. Each side is equal to five. Look at each of the coordinates and put them respectively into a graph in your mind. w(3,2) (bottom left) x(3,7) (top left) Y(8,7) (top right). Now we know we need to find the bottom right coordinate. Being that both of the coordinates on the left have the same x value we can justify that the coordinates on the right have the same X value also. we can say this same thing for the y coordinate. Since both coordinates on the top of the square have the same Y value, we can justify that the coordinates on the bottom have the same Y value. So taking the coordinates we now are the same, the answer is Z(8,2). We can check his by seeing if the distance if five from each of the adjacent coordinates. If you have any questions comment below.

Three partners, Luc, Deborah and Melanie, share the profits of a bussiness in the ratio 2:3:7 respectively. The profit for this
valentina_108 [34]
Add all parts shared 2+3+7=12

Therefore 1 part is 176,496÷12= $14,708.

This means:
Luc has 2 parts: $14,708×2=$29,416
Deborah has 3 parts: $14,708×3=$44,124
Melanie has 7 parts: $14,708×7=$102,956

To check add all values together. If it makes the total amount, then the share is correct. 29,416+44,124+102,956=$176,496
