Answer:
= 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic progression is
= a + (n - 1)d
where a is the first term and d the common difference
use the 9 th term and 7 th term to find a and d
= a + 8d =
→ (1)
= a + 6d =
→ (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) term by term
2d =
⇒ d = 
Substitute this value into (2) and solve for a
a +
= 
a =
-
= 
Hence
=
+
= 1
Answer:
35^67
Step-by-step explanation:
The integers are x - 1, x and x + 1
x - 1 + x + x + 1 = 186
3x = 186
x = 186/3 = 62
Therefore, the numbers are 61, 62 and 63
Answer:
3, and -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Because absolute value is the distance away from zero, |3| and |-3| would both be 3 units away from 0. Be sure to have the negative on the inside if you're trying to make something positive, otherwise -|3| means that the absolute value of 3 would then become negative since the negative sign isn't a part of the absolute. hope this helps!
