since the difference of the first and third value is ten, each value is five more than the previous value

Remark
Since it is an arithmetic sequence and the first and third terms are given to you, the second term may be found by taking the average of the first and third terms.

t2 = (t1 + t2)/2
t2 = (7 + 17)/2
t2 = 24/2 
t2 = 12 Answer <<<<<

See if that works
7 12 17 The first two terms differ by 5. 
The second two terms differ by 5 So for this sequence, that works. 

Will you be able to do this with any any arithmetic sequence?
___, ___, 12 ___ 18

At least for this one, yes. The answer is 15. The first two terms are 6 and 9. 
How should you do it?

Discussion (This is extra. You don't have to read it)

You should do it by defining the terms using the term formula
tn = a + (n - 1)d
t5 = a + 2*d = 18
<u>t3 = a + d = 12</u>
d = 6
a = 6 as well.

What is the slope line perpendicular to the equation 4x+3y=9
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

m=3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

first, let's put the line 4x+3y=9 from standard form (ax+by=c) into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)

we have the equation 4x+3y=9

subtract 4x from both sides

3y=-4x+9

divide by 3

y=-4/3x+3

perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative and reciprocal. If the slopes are multiplied together, the result is -1

so to find the slope of the line perpendicular to the line y=-4/3x+3, we can take the slope of y=-4/3x+3 (-4/3) multiply it by a variable (this is our unknown value), and have that set to -1

(m is the slope value)

-4/3m=-1

multiply by -3/4

m=3/4

therefore the slope of the perpendicular line is 3/4

hope this helps!! :)
