Answer:
103+10-23
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is 5.75
Step-by-step explanation:
I used desmos
A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32
Answer:
2500
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first square number be 
then the next square number is 
.
The difference between these two consecutive numbers is 99.
This implies that:
We expand to get:
Simplify:
Divide both sides by 2
Therefore the value of the larger perfect number is
.
It would be 2.6 x 104 for 26,500 in scientific notation.
