Answer:
a = 5 c =11
Step-by-step explanation:
9,2.5,-4,-10.5,-17
Let's find the difference between two consecutive terms
2.5 - 9 = -6.5
-4 - 2.5 = -6.5
-10.5 - (-4) = -6.5
-17 -(-10.5) = -6.5
We can see that the common difference is -6.5
-6.5 is the common difference between successive terms in the sequence 9,2.5,-4,-10.5,-17
the common difference is negative because we subtract 6.5 to get the next term.
Answer:
x = 5 and x = -19
Step-by-step explanation:
You're on the right track. It's the "discriminant" that tells you what you want to know here. Before starting, arrange the terms of your quadratic in descending orders of x: 5x^2 + 14x - 19 = 0 (Note that I assumed you meant 14x instead of just 14).
Then the coefficients of this quadratic are a = 5, b = 14 and c = -19.
You are referring to the "quadratic formula." It states this:
-b ± √(b²-4ac)
x = -----------------------
2a
So, we insert the a, b and c values as indicated above:
-14 ± √( 14² - 4[5][-19] ) -14 ± √(196 - 4[5][-19] ) -14 ± √576
x = ----------------------------------- = ---------------------------------- = ----------------------
2(10) 20 20
This comes out to:
x = (-14 + 24) / 2 and x = (-14 - 24) / 2
or:
x = 5 and x = -19
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/2 / 5/6
= 5/2 / 5/6
= 5/2 * 6/5
= 6/2
= 3
