1. b+2=p. 4+2=p. 6=p.
2. p/2=a. 6/2=a. 3=a
3. b-a=x. 4-3=x. 1=x
I'm in HS but this seems like it is the answer. If you need more explanation ask.
D is common in both polynomials
Answer:
1) They were multiplied by one power of ten because 2.5x 1^10 is 25, and so that it is easier to divide.
19.625/ 2.5 * 10/10 = 196.25/25
Hope this helps plz hit the crown ;D
Let the five terms be: a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, a + 4d, then
a + a + d + a + 2d + a + 3d + a + 4d = 5a + 15d = 40
i.e. a + 3d = 8
Also, (a + 2d)(a + 3d)(a + 4d) = 224
(a + 3d - d)(a + 3d)(a + 3d + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8)(8 + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8 + d) = 224/8 = 28
64 - d^2 = 28
d^2 = 64 - 28 = 36
d = sqrt(36) = 6
But a + 3d = 8
a + 3(6) = 8
a = 8 - 18 = -10
Therefore, the term of the sequence is: -10, -10 + 6, -10 + 2(6), -10 + 3(6), -10 + 4(6)
= -10, -4, -10 + 12, -10 + 18, -10 + 24
= -10, -4, 2, 8, 14
D no Solution would be the answer
