Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The distances have the ratio:
(C -A) = (2/3)(B -A)
C = (2/3)B +(1/3)A . . . . . add A
C = (2B +A)/3 . . . . . . . . combine terms
C = (2(4) +(-2))/3 = 6/3 = 2
The coordinate of C is 2.
Let

In order to prove this by induction, we first need to prove the base case, i.e. prove that P(1) is true:

So, the base case is ok. Now, we need to assume
and prove
.
states that

Since we're assuming
, we can substitute the sum of the first n terms with their expression:

Which terminates the proof, since we showed that

9.8 is the middle number which is the median
For numbers 15-17, we need to remember that two of a triangle's angles are always acute and the third angle will allow us to classify the triangle based on its angles. now that we know this, let's look at #15. the first two angles listed are acute, and the third is an obtuse angle, therefore it is an obtuse triangle. on #16 we have three acute angles, so it is an acute triangle. #17 has two acute angles and a right angle so it is a right triangle.
on numbers 21-23, we need to know that a triangle with all congruent sides is called equilateral, a triangle with two equal sides is isosceles, and a triangle with no equal sides is called scalene. #21 shows two equal sides so it is an isosceles triangle. #22 has three equal sides so it is an equilateral triangle. #23 has no equal sides so it is scalene. hope this helped! :)
