First one = 9x3=27
Second one 12x9=108
3rd one = 3x4=12
Idk what that last one is
Answer:
= 5n
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference d between consecutive terms
d = 10 - 5 = 15 - 10 = 20 - 15 = 25 - 20 = 30 - 25 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with explicit formula
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 5 and d = 5 , then
= 5 + 5(n - 1) = 5 + 5n - 5 = 5n
The ratios are equivalent because you multiplied 18:4 by 2&3. And also you divided it by 2. I had the same homework!
Answer:
It's like solving a quadratic, but in reverse, and in this case you'll arrive at x2+x−12=0
Explanation:
We're going to go "backwards" with this problem - normally we're asked to take a quadratic equation and find the roots. So we'll do what we normally do, but in reverse:
Let's start with the roots:
x=3, x=−4
So let's move the constants over with the x terms to have equations equal to 0:
x−3=0, x+4=0
Now we can set up the equation, as:
(x−3)(x+4)=0
We can now distribute out the 2 quantities:
x2+x−12=0
