How much must be added to each of the three numbers 1, 11, and 23 so that together they form a geometric progression?

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be unknown number which should be added to numbers 1, 11, 23 to get geometric progression. Then numbers 1 + x, 11 + x, 23 + x are first three terms of geometric progression.

Hence,

$b_1=1+x\\ \\b_2=11+x\\ \\b_3=23+x$

and

$b_2=b_1\cdot q\Rightarrow 11+x=(1+x)q\\ \\b_3=b_2\cdot q\Rightarrow 23+x=(11+x)q$

Express q:

$q=\dfrac{11+x}{1+x}=\dfrac{23+x}{11+x}$

Solve this equation. Cross multiply:

$(11+x)^2=(1+x)(23+x)\\ \\121+22x+x^2=23+x+23x+x^2\\ \\121+22x=23+24x\\ \\22x-24x=23-121\\ \\-2x=-98\\ \\2x=98\\ \\x=49$

How many equal sections divide a directed line segment if it is to be partitioned with a 7:10 ratio?

Dafna11 [192]

The midpoint formula is x1+x2 over 2 and y1+y2 over 2. When you use it to find the midpoint of (0,-8) and (-4,10), you get (-2,1).

Slope formula is y2-y1 over x2-x1, which will give you -6.
