Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

∵a+1,2a+1,4a-1 are in A.P.

2(2a+1)=a+1+4a-1

4a+2=5a

5a-4a=2

a=2

Can someone help please? And explain it.
sineoko [7]

Answer:

2 : 6 = 14 : 42

32 : 64 = 12 : 24

Step-by-step explanation:

This is ratios.

2 : 6 = 14 : 42 is because 2 can go into 14, 7 times, so that makes it a multiple of 2. Than you just multiply the 6 by 7 that will get you to 42.

32 : 64 = 12 : 24 is because 12 is doubled on the other side to get 24, so you just double 32 and get 64.

Hope this helps!!!

Suppose you drive a car 392 miles on one tank of gas. The tank holds 14 gallons of gas. (Assume the car travels the same distanc
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose you drive a car 392 miles on one tank of gas. The tank holds 14 gallons of gas. This means that

1 gallon of gas would be used to drive 392/14 = 28 miles

a) The number of miles traveled varies directly with the number of gallons of gas used.

Let x =number of gallons of gas you use.

Let y = the number of miles travelled.

Since y varies directly with x, we will introduce a constant of proportionality, k. Therefore,

y = kx

If 28 miles will require 1 gallon of gas, it means

28 = 1×k

k = 28

So y = 28x

b) we want to determine how far you can drive with 3.7 gallons of gas.

x = 3.7

y = 28x = 28×3.7

y = 103.6 miles

Write three equations whose solution is x=3.5
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

  • 1. 2x + 23 = 30
  • 2. 3x + 19.5 = 30
  • 3. (10x - 20)/ 5 = 3

Explanation:

Work backward:

1. 2x + 23 = 30

Start:

  • x = 3.5

Multiply the equation by 2:

  • 2x = 2 (3.5)
  • 2x = 7

Subtract 30 from both sides

  • 2x - 30 = 7 - 30
  • 2x - 30 = -23

Add 23 and 30 to both sides:

  • 2x + 23 = 30

2. 3x + 19.5 = 30

Start:

  • x = 3.5

Add 6.5 to both sides:

  • x + 6.5 = 10

Multiply by 3:

  • 3(x + 6.5) = 30

Distributive property:

  • 3x + 19.5 = 30

3. (10x - 20)/ 5 = 3

Start:

  • x=3.5

Multiply by 10:

  • 10x = 35

Subtract 20:

  • 10x - 20 = 15

Divide by 5:

  • (10x - 20)/ 5 = 15/5

  • (10x - 20) / 5 = 3
