Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Since it is AP, the common difference is same for any term:</u>

  • (4x - 2) - (x + 1) = (6x - 3) - (4x - 2)
  • 3x - 3 = 2x -1
  • 3x - 2x = 3 - 1
  • x= 2

<u>The first 3 terms are:</u>

  • 3, 6, 9

<u>Since the last term is 18, it means this AP has 6 terms:</u>

  • {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18}

<u>Answer: </u>as we need to find the value of x only, it is = 2

Write the equation of a line perpendicular to y= -5/6x-3 and whose y-intercept is (0,11).
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

y=6/5x+11

Callie evaluated the expression 0.42 times 4.73 using the steps shown below. 0.42 times 4.73 = 1.26. 1.26 + 29.40 + 168.00 = 198
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Callie multiplied incorrectly

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have 0.42 × 4.73 = 1.9866 then

1.9866 + 29.4 + 168 = 199.3866

Therefore, from the question, we had 0.42 × 4.73 = 1.26 which is incorrect, meaning that Callie multiplied incorrectly

Apparently, Callie multiplied as follows;

0.42 × 3 = 1.26 but what was in the question was

0.42 × 4.73 which is equal to 1.9866.
