Answer:
The first term is 3. The common difference is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term is x.
The common difference is d.
The second term is x + d.
3rd term: x + 2d
4th term: x + 3d
7th term: x + 6d
"The fourth term of an Arithmetic Sequence is equal to 3 times the first term"
x + 3d = 3 * x Eq. 1
"the seventh term exceeds twice the third term by 1"
x + 6d = 2(x + 2d) + 1 Eq. 2
Simplify Eq. 1:
2x = 3d
Simplify Eq. 2:
x + 6d = 2x + 4d + 1
x = 2d - 1
Multiply both sides of the last equation by 2.
2x = 4d - 2
2x = 3d (simplified Eq. 1)
Since 2x = 2x, then the right sides are equal.
3d = 4d - 2
d = 2
2x = 3d
2x = 3(2)
2x = 6
x = 3
Answer: The first term is 3. The common difference is 2.

Answer:
y=54/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Although the concept here is physics, the solution is technically just algebra. You have two situations that are related to each other which can be expressed in equation form. Actually, the equation is already given which is <span>7/12 w= 13 5/12. So, basically, all you have to do is solve for w.
Let's simplify 13 5/12 first into an improper fraction.You do this by multiplying the denominator with the whole number and adding to it the numerator. This will be your new numerator, The denominator would still be 12. So, this is equal to (12*13 + 5)/12 = 161/2. Then,
(7/12) w = 161/12
By cross multiplication,
7*12*w = 161*12
w = 161/7 = 23
Therefore, w = 23 pounds which is the weight of the object on Earth.
