Answer:

a₁ = 37

Step-by-step explanation:

In an arithmetic progression the common difference d is

d = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ , that is

2x - 18 - (x + 1) = 2x - 1 - (2x - 18) ← distribute and simplify both sides

2x - 18 - x - 1 = 2x - 1 - 2x + 18

x - 19 = 17 ( add 19 to both sides )

x = 36

Thus

a₁ = x + 1 = 36 + 1 = 37

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

(i) k =1

(ii) y-intercept is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given line:</u>

  • ky = kx + x + 7

<u>Divide all terms by k to get slope-intercept form of the line</u>

  • y = (1 + 1/k)x + 7/k

<u>Since the gradient (slope) of the line is 2:</u>

  • 1 + 1/k = 2
  • 1/k = 1
  • k = 1

<u>The equation is now:</u>

  • y = 2x + 7

<u>y - intercept is found when x = 0</u>

  • x = 0 ⇒
  • y = 2*0 + 7
  • y = 7
