Answer:
What is the geometric sequence?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
All the real numbers except 0
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable rule of exponents is ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
__
You have ...
(x^3)(x^a) = x^17
x^(3+a) = x^17
Equating exponents, we get ...
3 +a = 17
a = 14
The missing exponent is 14.
Let x = your number.
6x = x^2 - 27. Subtract 6x from each side.
0 = x^2 - 6x - 27. Factor
0 = (x-9) (x+3). Set each term equal to zero
(x+3) = 0. Subtract 3 from each side.
x = -3. This is the negative solution.
(x-9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.
x = 9. This is the positive solution.
x 12
the 12 in the numerator (top) and the 12 in the denominator (bottom) cross out so you are left with 50.
Answer: 50
