Answer: -2
(-5)(-1)x=(10)(-1)
5x = -10
x = -2
The three numbers are 12, 18 and 24
Arithmetic progression
Let the 3 number in arithmetic progression be:
a-d, d, a+d ...
If their sum is 3, then;
a-d+d+a+d = 3
2a + d = 3 ........... 1
If the sum of their squares is 11, then;
(a-d)² + d² + (a+d)² = 11
a²-2ad+d²+d²+a²+2ad+d² 11
2a²+3d² = 11 ....... 2
Solving the equations simultaneously, d = 6 and a = 12
First-term = 12
second term = 18
Thirs term = 24
Hence the three numbers are 12, 18 and 24
Hope this helps you!!!!!! :D
Convert both perecentages to decimal form by dividing each of them by 100 to get 0.60 and 0.65. Next, multiply by 0.60 and 0.65 to get 0.39. Multiply the product by 100 to get the percentage form, 39%. So, the answer is 39%.
