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.

a fruit delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. a delivery of 3 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total wei

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The weight of a small box = 13.5 kg

The weight of 1 large box = 18.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the weight of a small box = m kg

And the weight of 1 large box = n kg

Now, the weight of 5 small box = 5 x (weight of 1 small box) = 5 m

Also, the weight of 3 large box = 3 x (weight of 1 large box) = 3 n

Here, 3 large boxes + 5 small boxes = of 123 kilograms

⇒ 5 m + 3 n = 123 .... (1)

Again, the weight of 2 small box = 2 x (weight of 1 small box) = 2 m

Also, the weight of 12 large box = 12 x (weight of 1 large box) = 12 n

Here, 12 large boxes + 2 small boxes = 249 kilograms

⇒ 2 m+ 12 n = 249 .... (2)

Now, solving both the given equations by ELIMINATION, we get:

5 m + 3 n = 123 x (2)

2 m+ 12 n = 249 x (-5)

we get the new set of equitation as:

10 m + 6 n = 246

- 10 m - 60 n = -1245

Adding both equation, we get

-54 n = 999

or, n = 18.5

Now, 5 m + 3 n = 123

So, 5 m = 123 -3 (18.5) = 123 - 55.5 = 67.5

⇒ m = 13.5

Hence, the weight of a small box = m kg = 13.5 kg

And the weight of 1 large box = n kg = 18.5 kg
