Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This is an arithmetic series. Each term differs by 6 from the previous one.

Givens

a1 = 21

d = 6

Formula

a_n = a1 + (n - 1)*d

Sample

Try it.

Let's let n = 3 which we have the answer for.

a_3 = 21 + (3-1)*6

a_3 = 21 + 2 * 6

a_3 = 21 + 12

a_3 = 33

That's exactly what the 3rd term is.

Monica [59]

Here we want to find the equation of the line containing the median CP.

P, being the midpoint of AB can be found using the midpoint formula as:

$\displaystyle{ P=( \frac{-4+4}{2} , \frac{-2+4}{2} )=(0, 1)$ .

The slope m of the line through CP can be found by the slope formula using points C(18, -8) and P(0, 1):

$\displaystyle{ m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{-8-1}{18-0}= \frac{-9}{18}= \frac{-1}{2}$ .

Now, we can write the equation of the line with slope -1/2, passing through
P(0, 1):

$y-1= \frac{-1}{2}(x-0)\\\\y= -\frac{1}{2}x+1$ .

Answer: $y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$
