Answer:
-0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A. neither; 7, -20, 61
Step-by-step explanation:
The given terms do not have a common difference, so the sequence is not arithmetic.
The given terms do not have a common ratio, so the sequence is not geometric. (Any sequence with 0 as a term cannot be geometric.)
The sequence is <em>neither</em> arithmetic or geometric.
___
The first differences of the terms of this sequence are ...
-1, 1, -3
If we choose answer A (the only selection with "neither"), it suggests the next 3 terms are 7, -20, 61. These terms make the next differences be 9, -27, and 81. After the first term, the differences of the proposed sequence have a common ratio of -3. However, the first term needs to be 1/3 in order for that rule to be consistent for the whole sequence.
The ratio would need to be 1:1 in order to split the line in half. Think of it like having two cookies. If you split those cookies between you and your friend, then you get 1 and s/he gets the other. So the ratio of your cookie count to your friend's count is 1:1
With the ratio 1:2, you would have 1 cookie while your friend has 2 cookies. This is no longer a fair split. Things are not 50/50 anymore. You have 1/3 of the cookies while your friend has 2/3 of the cookies. Your friend would have twice as much.
So that applies to the segment lengths as well. The line segment would be split up into two parts A and B. Part A is the smaller segment that is half as long as part B. Or put another way, part B is twice as long as part A
<h2>○=> <u>Correct option</u> :</h2><h2>
</h2><h3>○=> <u>Steps to derive correct option</u> :</h3>
Angle (p+7)° and angle (3p+1)° are a linear pair so their sum will be equal to 180°.
Which means :
Let us solve that equation to find the value of p and the two angles :
Thus, value of p = 43
Measure of angle (p+7)° :
Measure of angle (3p+1)° :
Thus, the measure of the larger angle = 130°
Therefore, the correct option is <em>(a) 130</em>
