ARITH. PROGRESSION

1st term  =x,
2nd term =x², So the common difference d = x² - x

at the same time they are giving d=12, then: x² - x = 12
 x² - x + 12 =0, solving it gives: x' =6 & x" = - 2
for x= - 2, then  PA => -8, 4, 16 (d=12) ==> 3rd term = 16
& for x=6, then PA ==> 24, 36. 48, (d=12) etc 3rd term = 48

both are correct

4X,X^2,_
Common difference=12
second term - first term=12
X^2-4x=12
subtract 12 from both sides
X^2-4X-12=12-12
X^2-4X-12=0
now its a quadratic equation, so use either factor method or quadratic formula,
X^2-6X-2X-12=0
take common
x(X-6)-2(x-6)=0
x-2)(x-6)=0
so x is either 2 or 6 
now use them to find the third term

Please help me! in need of help due tomorrow!​
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1). A = π r²

A = 4 π

Area of shaded region is \frac{4\pi *260}{360} = \frac{26}{9} \pi or \frac{26\pi }{9}

(2). C = 4 π

In this case, the length of the bigger arc and the area of shaded region happen to be the same.

The length of the arc ADB is  \frac{26}{9} \pi or \frac{26\pi }{9}

PLEASE HELP!!!! POINTS^^^^^^
Troyanec [42]

1 - yes 100 and 75 are both collinear both are the same line.

2 - She can conclude that there both similar because the both go the same direction and both same shape.

3 - AB would equal 150 because the other one was 100 and the other angle was 25 down. So AB would equal 150.

Hope I helped
