Add, -11.5x and move it over to 8.5x
Then, subtract them together and you get 20x + 51.86 = 51.76
And you move (subtract) 51. 86 over to 51.76, subtract that and you get 20x = -0.1
Divide, and your answer is -200
Plz send a picture for me to help you on this thank u
A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32
Answer:
x= -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 5 to both sides
-3x -5+5 = 10 +5
-3x = 15
Divide both sides by -3.
-3x/-3= 15/-3
x= -5
X=15 is your answer. Give brainliest if possible.
