Answer:

<em> The numbers are 6, 18, and 30 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the three numbers are in the ratio of 3:9:10,

let the numbers be 3x, 9x and 10x.

<em>If 10 is added to the last number to form an arithmetic progression</em>

<em>Then, 3x 9x (10x+10) are the progression</em>

The common difference of an arithmetic progression (d) = T₂ - T₁ = T₃ - T₂

T₂-T₁ = T₃ - T₂ .............. Equation 1

Where T₁ = first term of the progression, T₂ = Second term of the progression, T₃ = third term of the progression

<em>Given: T₁ = 3x, T₂ = 9x, T₃ = 10x +10</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1</em>

<em>9x-3x = (10x+10)-9x</em>

<em>Solving the equation above,</em>

<em>3x = 10+x</em>

<em>3x-x = 10</em>

<em>2x = 10</em>

<em>x = 10/2</em>

<em>x = 2.</em>

<em>Therefore the numbers are 6, 18, and 30 </em>

Translate the sentence into an inequality.
lord [1]

Answer:

2(W - 5) ≤ -29      

Step-by-step explanation:

"Twice the difference of a number and 5 is at most -29" can be expressed symbolically as follows:

2(W - 5) ≤ -29      

Further explanations:

"the difference of a number and 5" is W - 5, and thus "Twice the difference of a number and 5" is 2(W - 5).

"x ≤ -29" states "x is at most -29."

How do I solve this?
Artemon [7]

a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)

In this case

49x^4y^2 - 4z^2

= (7x^2y)^2 - (2z)^2

= (7x^2y + 2z)(7x^2y - 2z)

Factors are (7x^2y + 2z) and (7x^2y - 2z)

Answer:

D) 7x^2y + 2z
