The absolute difference between the greatest and the least of these three numbers in the arithmetic sequence is 10.
The sequence is an arithmetic sequence. Therefore,
d = common difference
let
a = centre term
Therefore, the 3 consecutive term will be as follows
a - d, a, a + d
a - d + a + a + d = 27
3a = 27
a = 27 / 3
a = 9
Therefore,
(a-d)² + (a)² + (a + d)² = 293
(a²-2ad+d²) + 9² + (a² + 2ad + d²) = 293
(81 - 18d + d²) + 81 + (81 + 18d + d²) = 293
243 + 2d² = 293
2d² = 50
d² = 50 / 2
d = √25
d = 5
common difference = 5
Therefore, the 3 numbers are as follows
9 - 5 , 9, 9 + 5 = 4, 9, 14
The difference between the greatest and the least of these 3 numbers are as follows:
14 - 4 = 10

Substitution
y = 2x - 12
y = -x + 3
-x + 3 = 2x - 12
+ x + x
-----------------------------
3 = 3x - 12
+ 12 + 12
-----------------------
15 = 3x
------ ------
3 3
x = 5
y = 2(5) - 12
y = 10 - 12
y = -2
The final answer is (5,-2).
Answer: x > 5
Step-by-step explanation: To solve for <em>x</em> in this inequality, our goal is the same as it would be if this were an equation, to get x by itself on one side.
Since 3 is being subtracted from x, we add 3 to
both sides of the inequality to get x > 5.
When graphing x > 5, we have an open circle on 5 and the
open circle tells us that 5 is not part of our answer.
Then we draw an arrow going to the right to represent
all possible solutions to this inequality, any number greater than 5.
