4. The first two numbers in a sequence are 3, 9.
UkoKoshka [18]

The next two terms in the arithmetic progression will be 15 and 21.

Based on the information given, the following can be deduced.

First term = 3

Second term = 9

Common difference = 9 - 3 = 6

The nth term of an arithmetic progression is given as: = a + (n-1)d

Therefore, 3rd term = a + 2d = 3 + 2(6) = 3 + 12 = 15

4th term = a + 3d = 3 + 3(6) = 3 + 18 = 21

The next 2 terms are 15 and 21.

Line segment AB has endpoints A(1,8) and B(7,−4). What are the coordinates of the point located 5/6 of the way from A to B?
const2013 [10]

The coordinate of the point is (6,-2)

<h3>How to determine the coordinate of the point?</h3>

The given parameters are:

A = (1,8)

B = (7,-4)

The location of the point (i.e 5/6) means that the ratio is:

m :n = 5 : (6 - 5)

m : n = 5 : 1

The coordinate of the point is then calculated as:

(x,y) = \frac{1}{m + n}* (mx_2 + nx_1,my_2 + ny_1)

So, we have:

(x,y) = \frac{1}{5 + 1}* (5 * 7 + 1 * 1 , 5 * -4 + 1 * 8)

Evaluate

(x,y) = \frac{1}{6}* (36 , -12)

Evaluate the product

(x,y) = (6,-2)

Hence, the coordinate of the point is (6,-2)

Use the rational root theorem to list all possible rational roots for each equation. Then find any actual rational roots. X^3-4x
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

\pm1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

{x}^{3}  - 4x + 1 = 0

According to the rational roots theorem, the possible rational roots are all factors of the constant term, expressed over all

factors of the leading coefficient.

The factors of the leading term, 1 are:

±1

The factors of the leading coefficient are:

±1

The possible rational roots are:

\pm1
