Answer:

  • a = 5.8
  • b = 4.4

Step-by-step explanation:

As

7.2, a, b, 3 are in A.P

As we know common difference of the arithmetic sequence is the difference between the successive term and its preceding term, which is always constant

so

a -7.2 = b - a

a + a = b + 7.2

2a = b + 7.2

b = 2a - 7.2

also

a, b, 3 are in A.P

b - a = 3 - b

b + b = 3 + a

2b = 3 + a

Putting b = 2a - 7.2 in the equation 2b = 3 + a to find the value of 'a'.

2b = 3 + a

2 (2a - 7.2) = 3 + a

4a - 14.4 = 3 + a

3a = 3 + 14.4

3a = 17.4

Dividing the equation by 3

3a ÷ 3 = 17.4 ÷ 3

a = 5.8

Putting a = 5.8 in the equation b = 2a - 7.2

b = 2a - 7.2

  = 2(5.8) - 7.2

  = 11.6 - 7.2

b = 4.4

Therefore,

  • a = 5.8
  • b = 4.4

On a piece of paper, graph y≥ x - 1. Then determine which answer choice
zhannawk [14.2K]

Based on the given inequality of y≥ x - 1, the graph that matches it best is C. Graph A.

<h3>How are inequalities graphed?</h3>

When graphing an inequality with the "greater or equal" and "less or equal" signs, the line will be a steady line as shown by graphs A and B.

If y is the larger or equal variable, the shaded area will be to the left of the line.

The inequality is y≥ x - 1 which means that the line should be steady and the shading should be on the left of the line. Graph A is therefore the correct graph.

How to find rate of change on a table
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

   __X__l__Y_

        1     l    3

        5    l    6

        9     l    9

        13   l    12

        17   l    15

        21   l    18

On the right side, the numbers get larger by adding three each time. On the left side, the numbers get larger by adding 4 each time. It would be the same for any other pair of numbers when you add 4 to the left, and 3 to the right. For instance, the next pair would be (25 , 21). 25 would be the X value, and 21 would be the Y value.
