Answer:

a is equal to x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic Sequences

The arithmetic sequences are identified because any term n is obtained by adding or subtracting a fixed number to the previous term. That number is called the common difference.

We are given the sequence:

a, 3x+2, b

And the common difference is 2x-1

Subtracting the second and the first terms:

3x + 2 - a

We can find the common difference since it's given:

3x + 2 - a = 2x - 1

Solving for a:

- a = -3x - 2 + 2x - 1

- a = -x - 3

a = x + 3

a is equal to x + 3

Answer:

x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2 is the 2nd term

2x-1 is the commind difference (d)

so you just need to substract it

3x+2

-(+2x-1) -------transpose -2x+1

3x+2

-2x+1

---------

x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First and Second and Third

$\dfrac{3\ total\ prizes}{29\ total\ people}\times \dfrac{2\ remaining\ prizes}{28\ remaining\ people}\times \dfrac{1\ remaining\ prize}{27\ remaining\ people}=\dfrac{6}{21,924}\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{1}{3,654}}$

2) First and Second

$\dfrac{3\ total\ prizes}{29\ total\ people}\times \dfrac{2\ remaining\ prizes}{28\ remaining\ people}=\dfrac{6}{812}=\large\boxed{\dfrac{13}{406}}$

$3)\quad \dfrac{29!}{(29-10)!}=\large\boxed{72,684,900,288,000}$

$4)\quad _{10}C_3=\dfrac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}=\large\boxed{120}$
