Given: 
Sum of arithmetic sequence is 21.
Product of arithmetic sequence is 315.

I did a manual computation. Arithmetic sequence means that there is a constant difference between the two consecutive numbers.

x + (x+2) + (x + 2 + 2) = 21
3x + 6 = 21
3x = 21 - 6
3x = 15
x = 15/3
x = 5    1st number

x + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7 2nd number

x + 2 + 2 = 5 + 2 + 2 = 9  3rd number.

5 + 7 + 9 = 21
5 x 7 x 9 = 315

These three terms can be written as a-d, a, a+d
Then (a-d)+a+(a+d)=21, i.e. 3a=21 and a=7.
So,
7(7-d)(7+d)=315
7²-d²=315/7=45
d²=49-45=4
d=2 or d=-2.
Thus, we have terms 5,7,9 or 9,7,5.

Draw the line of reflection that reflects quadrilateral ABCD onto quadrilateral A'B'C'D'
MArishka [77]

The two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5) and the equation of the line is 8y = 7x + 12 passing through the two points.

<h3>What is geometric transformation?</h3>

It is defined as the change in coordinates and the shape of the geometrical body. It is also referred to as a two-dimensional transformation. In the geometric transformation, changes in the geometry can be possible by rotation, translation, reflection, and glide translation.

We have a quadrilateral ABCD which is reflected over a line and formed a mirror image A'B'C'D' of the quadrilateral.

From the graph:

The two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5)

The line equation passing through two points:

[y - 5] = (5+2)/(4+4)[x - 4]

y - 5 = 7/8[x - 4]

8y - 40 = 7x - 28

8y = 7x + 12

Thus, the two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5) and the equation of the line is 8y = 7x + 12 passing through the two points.

A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have $180.50 to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $19.50, an
AleksAgata [21]

a.

The required equation is  23p + 19.50 = 180.50

Let p represent the number of people who can go to the amusement park.

Since the ticket costs $23 per person, the total amount paid for ticket is rate × number of person = $23 × p = 23p.

Since we pay $19.50 for parking, the total amount spent is T = 23p + 19.50

Since the total amount equals $180.50. T = 180.50

So, 23p + 19.50 = 180.50

The required equation is  23p + 19.50 = 180.50

b.

Solving 23p + 19.50 = 180.50, we have

23p = 180.50 - 19.50

23p = 161

p = 161/23

p = 7

So, the number of people who can go to the amusement park is 7.
