Answer:

$-1,4,-7,10,...$ neither

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ geometric progression

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ arithmetic progression

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

sequences: $-1,4,-7,10,...$

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$

To find: which of the given sequence forms arithmetic progression, geometric progression or neither of them

Solution:

A sequence forms an arithmetic progression if difference between terms remain same.

A sequence forms a geometric progression if ratio of the consecutive terms is same.

For $-1,4,-7,10,...$ :

$4-(-1)=5\\-7-4=-11\\10-(-7)=17\\So,\,\,4-(-1)\neq -7-4\neq 10-(-7)$

Hence,the given sequence does not form an arithmetic progression.

$\frac{4}{-1}=-4\\\frac{-7}{4}=\frac{-7}{4}\\\frac{10}{-7}=\frac{-10}{7}\\So,\,\,\frac{4}{-1}\neq \frac{-7}{4}\neq \frac{10}{-7}$

Hence,the given sequence does not form a geometric progression.

So, $-1,4,-7,10,...$ is neither an arithmetic progression nor a geometric progression.

For $192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ :

$\frac{24}{192}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{3}{24}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}=\frac{1}{8}\\So,\,\,\frac{24}{192}=\frac{3}{24}=\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}$

As ratio of the consecutive terms is same, the sequence forms a geometric progression.

For $-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ :

$-18-(-25)=-18+25=7\\-11-(-18)=-11+18=7\\-4-(-11)=-4+11=7\\So,\,\,-18-(-25)=-11-(-18)=-4-(-11)$

As the difference between the consecutive terms is the same, the sequence forms an arithmetic progression.

Jerry was comparing the points the bulls socered for different games he recorded 85,85, 86,77, 93 determine the mean median mode

maks197457 [2]

Answers:
Mean - 85.2
Median - 85
Mode - 85

Explanation:
Mean - 77+85+85+86+93=426/5 (the amount of data points given) = 85.2

Median - Organize the data points from least to greatest and eliminate the outermost numbers two at a time (one from both side) until you’re left with one.

Mode - The number that appears the most often in a given data set

Please please help me on how to do congruent figures!

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both triangles are similar hence;

m<CAB = m<CDE

Given theta

m<CAB = 50degrees

m<CDE = 10x

Substitute the given angles

50 = 10x

Swap

10x = 50

Divide both sides by 10

10x/10 = 50/10

x = 5

Hence the value of x is 5

Determine which lines are parallel and which are not parallel. Explain your reasoning.

NeX [460]

Answer:

If M and N are parallel, then the correspondent angles generated by the intersection with line R (or line S) should be equal.

So, if M and N are parallel, we should get that angles 2 and angle 4 are equal, as both of these are on the fourth quadrant of the intersection with the same line.

Similarly, if R and S are parallel, then correspondent angles generated by the intersection with line M (or line N) should be equal, this means that:

angle 3 and angle 7 should be equal.

Also remember that if we have two lines intersecting, generating 4 angles, any pair of two adjacent angles will always add to 180°.

Here we have two cases:

1) m∠3=69°, m∠7=71°

Here we can see that:

m∠3 ≠ m∠7

Thus, lines R and S are not parallel.

And here we do not have any information on the angles 1, 2, 5, and 6, so we can't compare the angles generated by line N with the ones generated by line M, so we can not know if lines N and M are parallel or not.

2) Now we have that:

m∠3=76° , m∠8=114°

Notice that angle 8 and angle 7 are adjacent, then we have that:

∠7 + ∠8 = 180°

And we know that:

∠8 = 114°

Then:

∠7 + 114° = 180°

∠7 = 180° - 114° = 76°

Then we have:

∠7 = ∠3

From this we can conclude that lines R and S are parallel.

(again, we can not do anything with lines N and M)
