I need help solving this equation<br> 4n-9=2(5+2n)

Nastasia [14]

First, use distributive property on the right half.

2 * 5 = 10

2 * 2n = 4n

4n - 9 = 10 + 4n

Add 9 to both sides

4n = 19 + 4n

Subtract 4n from both sides

0 = 19

But thats not true. Therefore, there is no solution.

Find the positive value of x in the geometric sequence 7x-2,4x+4,3x

Goryan [66]

Hello,

Let's assume k the ratio.

$
 \left \{ {{3x=k*(4x+4)} \atop {4x+4=k*(7x-2)}} \right. \\\\
 \left \{ {{3x-4kx=4k} \atop {4x-7kx=-2k-4}} \right. \\\\
 \left \{ {{x(3-4k)=4k} \atop {x(4-7k)=-2k-4}} \right. \\\\
 \left \{ {{x=\dfrac{4k}{3-4k} \atop {x=\dfrac{-2k-4}{4-7k} \right. \\\\

\dfrac{4k}{3-4k}=\dfrac{-2k-4}{4-7k}\\\\

36k^2-6k-12=0\\
6k^2-k-2=0\\

\boxed{k= \dfrac{2}{3} \ or\ k= -\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\\

x=\dfrac{4*\dfrac{2}{3} }{3-4*\dfrac{2}{3} }=8\\
x=\dfrac{4*\dfrac{-1}{2} }{3-4*\dfrac{-1}{2} }=-\dfrac{2}{5}\\





$

$\boxed{x= 8 \ or\ x= -\dfrac{2}{5}}\\\\$
