The common difference is -6.

Because,
14 - 6 = 8
 8 - 6 = 2
 2 - 6 = -4

Answer: The common difference= -6


Step-by-step explanation:

Here in the given sequence the first term=a_1=14

The second term=a_2=8

The third term=a_3=2

The fourth term=a_4=-4

The fifth term=a_5=-10

The difference between the consecutive terms=d=a_2-a_1=8-14=-6

d=a_3-a_2=2-8=-6

d=a_4-a_3=-4-6=-6

d=a_5-a_4=-10-(-4)=-6

hence the common difference= -6

If a pentagon is regular, then all of the sides are the same length. This means that

5x-4=2x+11 \iff 5x-2x = 11+4 \iff 3x=15 \iff x = 5

So, if x=5, the lengths of the sides evaluate to

5x-4 = 25-4=21,\quad 2x+11=10+11=21

So, all the sides of the pentagon are 21 units long, and AB is 21 units long as well, because all sides are the same length.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

There were 2747 yes votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using proportions.

The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 5 to 3 .

This means that for each 5 + 3 = 8 votes, 5 were yes and 3 were no.

If there were 4395 total votes, how many yes votes were there?

For each 8 votes, we have 5 yes. How many yes votes were there in 4395 votes?

5 yes - 8 votes

x yes - 4395 votes

8x = 4395*5

x = 4395*5/8

x = 2747

There were 2747 yes votes.
