A + b + c = 72

a = b - 1

c = b + 1

 

(b - 1) + b + (b + 1) = 72

Simplify

3b = 72

b = 24

 

a = 24 - 1

a = 23

Sustituir. 20c + 15r + 75p + 50e​
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

8c - 7r + 10p - 20e

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract (20c + 15r + 75p + 50e) - (12c + 22r + 65p + 70e)

(20c + 15r + 75p + 50e) - (12c + 22r + 65p + 70e)

Open bracket

20c + 15r + 75p + 50e - 12c - 22r - 65p - 70e

Collect like terms

= 20c - 12c + 15r - 22r + 75p - 65p + 50e - 70e

= 8c - 7r + 10p - 20e

5,25,125 find 10th term
anastassius [24]

Answer:

9765625

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio between consecutive terms , that is

r = 25 ÷ 5 = 125 ÷ 25 = 5

This indicates the sequence is geometric with n th term

a_{n} = a₁r^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 5 and r = 5 , then

a₁₀ = 5 × 5^{9} = 5 × 1953125 = 9765625
