Answer:

$\displaystyle \large{(x + 9)(x - 8)}$

The value of a is 9 and b is -8

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle \large{(x + a)(x + b) = {x}^{2} + (a + b)x + ab}$

We need to find two numbers that add up or subtract off to 1.

Then we also use the same two numbers that multiply and get -72.

Let's see:-

9 and -8 seem like correct values.

Because 9+(-8) is 9-8 = 1

And 9(-8) is -72.

Therefore:

$\displaystyle \large{ {x}^{2} + x - 72 = (x + 9)(x - 8)}$

The value of a is 9 and the value of b is -8 according to form of (x+a)(x+b)

The first term of an arithmetic sequence is -5, and the tenth term is 13. Find the common difference.

dlinn [17]

$\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence} \\\\ a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad \begin{cases} n=n^{th}\ term\\ a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ d=\textit{common difference}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a_1=-5\\ n=10\\ a_{10}=13 \end{cases} \\\\\\ a_{10}=a_1+(10-1)d\implies 13=-5+(10-1)d \\\\\\ 13=-5+9d\implies 18=9d\implies \cfrac{18}{9}=d\implies \boxed{2=d}$
