Point G cannot be a centroid because GE is wider that JG or JG is shorter than GE. So in this diagram GE is wider than JG with 10 cm and 5 cm respectively based on this information Point G cannot be a centroid of triangle HJK. So the answer is point G cannot be a centroid because JG is shorter than GE.
To Find :-
- The algebraic equations to solve the above problem .
Solution :-
Let ,
- Large number = L
- Small number = S
— According to first statement ,
— According to second statement ,
- 3L + 4S = 54
- 3L + 4S - 54 = 0 .
These equations matches with the second option b .
Option b is the correct answer.
The explicit formula for this arithmetic sequence is A(n)=1/2•(-8)^(n-1)
1) 1/3x - 2/3 = -18
2) 1/3x - 2/3 + 2/3 = -18 + 2/3
3) 1/3x = -54/3 + 2/3
4) 1/3x = -52/3
5) (1/3x) divided by 1/3 = -52/3 divided by 1/3
6) x = -52/3 x 3/1
7) x = -52
3/4 is the simplest form of 9/12
