Which one do you need help with?
Answer:
= 5n - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference between consecutive terms , that is
9 - 4 = 14 - 9 = 19 - 14 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 4 and d = 5 , then
= 4 + 5(n - 1) = 4 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 1
The three numbers are 12, 18 and 24
Arithmetic progression
Let the 3 number in arithmetic progression be:
a-d, d, a+d ...
If their sum is 3, then;
a-d+d+a+d = 3
2a + d = 3 ........... 1
If the sum of their squares is 11, then;
(a-d)² + d² + (a+d)² = 11
a²-2ad+d²+d²+a²+2ad+d² 11
2a²+3d² = 11 ....... 2
Solving the equations simultaneously, d = 6 and a = 12
First-term = 12
second term = 18
Thirs term = 24
Hence the three numbers are 12, 18 and 24
Hope this helps you!!!!!! :D
