Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the terms are in an arithmetic progression then there is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is
2x - 1 - (x + 1) = x + 5 - (2x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
2x - 1 - x - 1 = x + 5 - 2x + 1, that is
x - 2 = - x + 6 ( add x to both sides )
2x - 2 = 6 ( add 2 to both sides )
2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 4
The 3 terms are 5, 7, 9

Answer:
2x + 5y + 28 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
since they are perpendicular,
m1 ×m2 = -1
5/2 × m2 = -1
m2 = -2/5
now,
y -y1 = M (x-x1)
y - (-4) = -2/5 ( x - (-4) )
y +4 = -2/5 ( x + 4 )
5 ( y +4 ) = -2 ( x+4)
5y +20 = -2x - 8
2x + 5y +20 + 8 =0
2x + 5y + 28 = 0
