The first term of the arithmetic progression exists at 10 and the common difference is 2.

<h3>How to estimate the common difference of an arithmetic progression?</h3>

let the nth term be named x, and the value of the term y, then there exists a function y = ax + b this formula exists also utilized for straight lines.

We just require a and b. we already got two data points. we can just plug the known x/y pairs into the formula

The 9th and the 12th term of an arithmetic progression exist at 50 and 65 respectively.

9th term = 50

a + 8d = 50 ...............(1)

12th term = 65

a + 11d = 65 ...............(2)

subtract them, (2) - (1), we get

3d = 15

d = 5

If a + 8d = 50 then substitute the value of d = 5, we get

a + 8 * 5 = 50

a + 40 = 50

a = 50 - 40

a = 10.

Therefore, the first term is 10 and the common difference is 2.

Paha777 [63]
-3 (x - 5) - 8 (y + 2) + (-3) (6 - 4b)

First, simplify your brackets. / Your problem should look like: -3 (x - 5) - 8 (y + 2) + -3 (6 - 4b)
Second, simplify. / Your problem should look like: -3 (x - 5) - 8 (y + 2) - 3 (b - 4b)
Third, expand your problem. / Your problem should look like: -3x + 15 - 8y - 16 - 18 + 12b
Fourth, simplify. / Your problem should look like: -3x - 8y + 12b - 19

Answer: -3x - 8y + 12b - 19 (D)
