The sum of the first three terms of an arithmetic sequence is 108, and the sum of the next three terms is 183. what is the value

qaws [65]

The key is to find the first term a(1) and the difference d.

in an arithmetic sequence, the nth term is the first term +(n-1)d
the firs three terms: a(1), a(1)+d, a(1)+2d
the next three terms: a(1)+3d, a(1)+4d, a(1)+5d,
a(1) + a(1)+d +a(1)+2d=108
a(1)+3d + a(1)+4d + a(1)+5d=183

subtract the first equation from the second equation: 9d=75, d=75/9=25/3
Plug d=25/3 in the first equation to find a(1): a(1)=83/3

the 11th term is: a(1)+(25/3)(11-1)=83/3 +250/3=111

Please double check my calculation. <span />

What is the solution to this equation 2/3x+1=1/6×-7

Alika [10]

Answer:

A . x= -16

Step-by-step explanation:

$\\\frac{2}{3}x+1=\frac{1}{6}x-7\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\\frac{2}{3}x+1-1=\frac{1}{6}x-7-1\\\\\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{1}{6}x-8\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{1}{6}x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{6}x=\frac{1}{6}x-8-\frac{1}{6}x\\\\= \frac{1}{2}x=-8\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:2}\\\\2\times \frac{1}{2}x=2\left(-8\right)\\\\x=-16$
