We can solve this problem by using PEMDAS
PEMDAS stands for
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiply
Add
Subtract
So start with (P+3) () is a parenthesis
Answer:
im answer this for points pls dont mind
[3/2][1/3][3/5][3/7][3/10]
Answer:
the first term is a1
the distance between the numbers is d
we have:
a5 = a1 + 4d = 23
a12 = a1 + 11d = 72
so we have the equation:
a1 + 4d = 23
a1 + 11d = 72
=> a1 = -5
d = 7
=> an = -5 + 7(n - 1) = 7n - 12
with an = 7n - 12
=> a2 = 2
a3 = 9
so the first three terms is -5; 2; 9
