A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32

Answer: 121
Answer:
the answer is 15:75
Step-by-step explanation:
(1+5)=6
£90/6=15
So, (1×15):(5×15)
=15:75
Answer and explanation:
Discrete random variables can be counted as integers and you can't divide them. Continuous random variables are counted as real numbers and are magnitudes that can´t be counted as an exact number (there will always be an uncertainty in the measurement).
a. The random variable is continuous. Distance is a measurement.
b. The random variable is discrete. You can count how many people are sitting at a computer.
c. The random variable is continuous. Weight is a measurement.
d. The random variable is discrete. You can count how many fishes were caught.
e. The random variable is discrete. You can count how many hints a web site had.
