Given:
arithmetic progression
a₁ = 3
a₂ = x
a₃ = y
a₄ = 18

Solution:
The arithmetic progression has general formula to determine nth term
a₁ + d(n - 1) = an
a₁ represents first term, d represents difference, n represents number of terms, an represents nth term

First we should find out the value of d, by submitting a₄ to the formula
a₁ + d(n - 1) = an
a₁ + d(4 - 1) = a₄
3 + d(3) = 18
3 + 3d = 18
3d = 15
d = 5
The difference of the sequence is 5

Second, determine x and y
x = a₂
x = a₁ + d(2 - 1)
x = 3 + 5(1)
x = 8

y = a₃
y = a₁ + d(3 - 1)
y = 3 + 5(2)
y = 13

The value of x is 8, the value of y is 13

madam [21]

Answer:

x = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the axis of symmetry is between the 2 x intercepts, we can find it by finding the average of the x-coordinates of the 2 points.

(-7 + 10) / 2

3/2

= 1.5

So, the axis of symmetry is at x = 1.5

How to find the volume of the cone
gavmur [86]

Answer:

The closest measurement to the volume of hat is 84.82 in.³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The dimensions of hat are height(h) 9 inches and diameter(d) 6 inches.

Now, to find the volume of cone:

Putting the formula \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h.

Radius(r) is not given, finding the radius:

Radius(r)=half of the diameter(d)

r=\frac{d}{2}

r=\frac{6}{2}

r=3.

Then, \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h

=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi \times3^{2}\times9

=\frac{1}{3}\times3.14\times9\times9 (\pi =3.14)

=\frac{1}{3} \times254.34

=\frac{254.34}{3}

=84.78 in.³

So, the volume is 84.78 in.³ .

Therefore, the closest measurement to the volume of hat is 84.82 in.³.
