<h3>Given</h3>

4 hundreds flats; 5 tens rods; 2 ones cubes

<h3>Find</h3>

The number of hundreds flats in each of 2 equal piles

<h3>Solution</h3>

When 4 flats are divided into two equal groups, each group will have ...

... 2 flats

_____

You can imagine doing this the way a card dealer might: first put 1 flat in each of 2 piles, then do the same for the remaining 2 flats. Each pile will end up with 2 flats.

— — — — —

You will have a problem if you continue with the tens rods. There is an odd number of those, so one of them will have to be exchanged for 10 ones cubes.

The sum of the first three terms in a GP is 38.Their product is 1728.Find the values of the three terms.
dusya [7]

Answer:

The value of the three terms is 8 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a" be the first term and "r" be the common ratio.

Then from the condition, we have these two equations

   a + ar + ar^2  =   38,      (1)

   a*(ar*)*(ar^2) = 1728.      (2)

From equation (2),  a^3*r^3 = 1728,  or  (ar)^3 = 1728,   which implies

   ar = root%283%2C1728%29 = 12;          (3)    

hence,  

   r  = 12%2Fa.                   (4)

Now, in equation (1) replace the term  ar  by 12, based on (3).  You will get

   a + 12 + ar^2 =  38,   which implies

   a + ar^2 = 26.              (5)

Next, substitute  r = 12%2Fa  into equation (5), replacing "r" there.  You will get

   a + a%2A%28144%2Fa%5E2%29 = 26,   or

   a + 144%2Fa = 26.

Multiply by "a" both sides and simplify

   a^2 - 26a + 144 = 0,

   %28a-13%29%5E2 - 169 + 144 = 0

   %28a-13%29%5E2 = 25

   a - 13 = +/- sqrt%2825%29 = +/- 5.

Thus two solutions for "a" are  a = 13 + 5 = 18  or  a = 13 - 5 = 8.

If  a =  8, then from (4)  r = 12%2F8 = 3%2F2.

If  a = 18, then from (4)  r = 12%2F18 = 2%2F3.

   

In the first case, if a = 8,  then the three terms are  8, 8%2A%283%2F2%29 = 12  and  8%2A%283%2F2%29%5E2 = 18.

   In this case, the sum of terms is  8 + 12 + 18 = 38, so this solution does work.

In the second case, if a = 18,  then the three terms are  18, 18%2A%282%2F3%29 = 12  and  18%2A%282%2F3%29%5E2 = 8.

   In this case, the sum of terms is  18 + 12 + 8 = 38, so this solution does work, too.

ANSWER.  The problem has two solution:  

        a)  first term is 18;  the common difference is 2%2F3  and the progression is  18, 12, 8.

        b)  first term is  8;  the common difference is 3%2F2  and the progression is   8, 12, 18.
