N= numerator
D= denominator

N:D ==> 2:3

2:3, 4:6, 6:9... And so on...

The pattern here is that the numerator increases by 2 and the denominator by 3. Easy right?

Now 5 is added to the "n".

Now it is N:D ==> 3:2

3:2, 6:4, 9:6... And so on...

The pattern here is inverted then the 2:3 one.

If I'm right then which one (you might have to continue the process/pattern) then one of them will increase by 5.

3 => 2 = +1 (2+1=3)
6 => 4 = +2 (4+2=6)
9 => 6 = +3 (6+3=9)
12 => 8 = +4 (8+4=12)
15 => 10 = +5 (10+5=15)
18 => 12= +6 (12+6=18)

Q. Which one is +5?

A. 15:10

That is what "I" think it is.

Now, the question is,
Does it work? Does it fit the above description?

Q. Does it even work? Does it fit the above description?

Sabendo que x2 + y2=74 e que xy=35, calcule valor de (x - y2)2
Ann [662]
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the following information given in the problem above:

 - x²+y²<span>=74
 xy=35

 2. Therefore, you have that (x-y)</span>² is:

 =(x-y)²
 =x²-2xy+y²
 =(x²+y²)-2xy

 3. When you substitute the values given in the problem, you obtain:

 =74-2(35)
 =74-70
 =4

 4. Therefore, as you can see, the correct answer is: 4
