Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

$\because ST \: bisects\: \angle RSV\\\therefore m\angle RST = m\angle VST\\(by\: \angle \: bisector \: property) \\\therefore 5x - 3 = 2x + 15\\\therefore 5x - 2x = 15 +3\\\purple{\bold {\therefore 3x = 18}} \\\therefore x =\frac{18}{3}\\\huge \orange {\boxed {\therefore x = 6}}$

Answer:

240 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

10 • 18 = 180

18 - 6 = 12

12 • 5 = 60/2 = 30

12 • 5 = 60/2 = 30

180 + 30 + 30 = 240

Answer:

$-1,4,-7,10,...$ neither

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ geometric progression

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ arithmetic progression

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

sequences: $-1,4,-7,10,...$

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$

To find: which of the given sequence forms arithmetic progression, geometric progression or neither of them

Solution:

A sequence forms an arithmetic progression if difference between terms remain same.

A sequence forms a geometric progression if ratio of the consecutive terms is same.

For $-1,4,-7,10,...$ :

$4-(-1)=5\\-7-4=-11\\10-(-7)=17\\So,\,\,4-(-1)\neq -7-4\neq 10-(-7)$

Hence,the given sequence does not form an arithmetic progression.

$\frac{4}{-1}=-4\\\frac{-7}{4}=\frac{-7}{4}\\\frac{10}{-7}=\frac{-10}{7}\\So,\,\,\frac{4}{-1}\neq \frac{-7}{4}\neq \frac{10}{-7}$

Hence,the given sequence does not form a geometric progression.

So, $-1,4,-7,10,...$ is neither an arithmetic progression nor a geometric progression.

For $192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ :

$\frac{24}{192}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{3}{24}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}=\frac{1}{8}\\So,\,\,\frac{24}{192}=\frac{3}{24}=\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}$

As ratio of the consecutive terms is same, the sequence forms a geometric progression.

For $-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ :

$-18-(-25)=-18+25=7\\-11-(-18)=-11+18=7\\-4-(-11)=-4+11=7\\So,\,\,-18-(-25)=-11-(-18)=-4-(-11)$

As the difference between the consecutive terms is the same, the sequence forms an arithmetic progression.
