Answer: The missing number in the sequence is \frac{7}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

\frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{2},\frac{5}{6},----------,\frac{11}{2}

First term = a= \frac{1}{6}

Common difference = d is given by

d=a_2-a_1\\\\\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{6}\\\\=\frac{6-2}{12}\\\\=\frac{4}{12}=\frac{1}{3}\\\\Similarly,\\d=a_3-a_2\\\\=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{1}{2}\\\\=\frac{10-6}{12}\\\\=\frac{4}{12}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, it forms an arithmetic sequence.

Since, a_4 is missing,

So,

a_4=a+3d\\\\a_4=\frac{1}{6}+3\times \frac{1}{3}\\\\a_4=\frac{1}{6}+1\\\\a_4=\frac{1+6}{6}\\\\a_4=\frac{7}{6}

Hence, the missing number in the sequence is \frac{7}{6}

This is an <span>arithmetic progression at a rate of 2/6. 

So 1/6 + 2/6 = 3/6 (1/2)
3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6
5/6 + 2/6 = 7/6
....
29/6 + 2/6 = 31/6 
31/6 +2/6 = 33/6 (11/2)</span>

Answer:

The answer would be 'D'.

Step-by-step explanation:

An expression does NOT have an equal sign while a formula does. A variable is some letter symbol that you are solving for, but a constant would be a number such as 2 or 4 that could be added, multiplied, subtracted, or divided in an equation. 

I hope this helps!

The solution to the system of equations shown is (2, 0).
alexandr1967 [171]
When the multiples of the equations in a system is added or subtracted, the resulting equation together with any of the original equation will result in the same answer.
Hence, the system of equations
x + 4y = 2
7x = 14
will also have a solution of (2, 0).
