Hi there! :)

Answer:

\large\boxed {\frac{1}{4}} Common difference

\large\boxed{\frac{3}{2}, \frac{7}{4}, 2} Next three terms

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Find the common difference by subtracting the previous term from a term. We can use the terms 1/4 and 1/2:

Convert 1/2 into a fraction over 4:

1/2 · 2/2 = 2/4

Find the common difference by subtracting the fractions:

2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4. This is the common difference.

Find the next 3 terms by adding 1/4:

5/4 + 1/4 = 6/4 (Reduce fraction) = 3/2

6/4 + 1/4 = 7/4

7/4 + 1/4 = 8/4 (Reduce fraction)

Therefore, the next 3 terms are 3/2, 7/4 and 2.

PLEASE HURRY Write the equation as a single logarithm 3log(x-2)+2log(x+2)
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

3\,log (x-2)+2\,log(x+2) can be written as the single logarithm:

log((x-2)^3\,(x+2)^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by using in both terms of the expression the property of logarithm of a power that states:

log(a^b)=b\,*\,log(a)

so we recognize that the factor that multiplies each logarithmic expression, can be understood as the power of the argument of the function logarithm:

3\,log(x-2)=log((x-2)^3)\\and\\2\,log(x+2)=log((x+2)^2)

Then we use the property of logarithm of a product which states that:

log(a*b)=log(a)+log(b)

So now we recognize the expression:

log((x-2)^3)\,+\,log((x+2)^2)

as the logarithm of the product:

log((x-2)^3\,(x+2)^2)

which is finally a single logarithm as requested.

A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide. If its length and width are both
puteri [66]

Answer:

a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide . if both its dimensions are increased 4 m , its area is increaed by 88 m squared make a sketch and find its original dimensions of the original rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l = the original length of the original rectangle

Let w = the original width of the original rectangle

From the description of the problem, we can construct the following two equations

l=2*w (Equation #1)

(l+4)*(w+4)=l*w+88 (Equation #2)

Substitute equation #1 into equation #2

(2w+4)*(w+4)=(2w*w)+88

2w^2+4w+8w+16=2w^2+88

collect like terms on the same side of the equation

2w^2+2w^2 +12w+16-88=0

4w^2+12w-72=0

Since 4 is afactor of each term, divide both sides of the equation by 4

w^2+3w-18=0

The quadratic equation can be factored into (w+6)*(w-3)=0

Therefore w=-6 or w=3

w=-6 can be rejected because the length of a rectangle can't be negative so

w=3 and from equation #1 l=2*w=2*3=6

I hope that this helps. The difficult part of the problem probably was to construct equation #1 and to factor the equation after performing all of the arithmetic operations.

What is the sum of 2 2/3 and 1 5/6?
stellarik [79]
First make each fraction into an improper fraction

2 2/3 = 8/3
1 5/6 = 11/6

Next, make the fractions have same denominators. Note, that what you do to the denominator, you do to the numerator.

8/3(2/2) = 16/6

Add
16/6 + 11/6 = 27/6

27/6 = 4 3/6 = 4 1/2

4 1/2 is your simplified answer

hope this helps

Roman55 [17]

\bf \textit{circumference of a circle}\\\\ C=2\pi r~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ C=7.850 \end{cases}\implies 7.850=2\pi r\implies \cfrac{7.85}{2\pi }=r\implies 1.25\approx r
