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

How do I solve this?​
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

v = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{BI}{MO} = \frac{BG}{MP} , substitute values

\frac{v}{33} = \frac{64}{96} ( cross- multiply )

96v = 2112 ( divide both sides by 96 )

v = 22
