An arithmetic sequence is a sequence with the difference between two consecutive terms constant. The difference is called the common difference. A geometric sequence is a sequence with the ratio between two consecutive terms constant. This ratio is called the common ratio.
Answer:
x = -11/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratios need to stay the same
5x 11
----- = -------
x-2 3
Using cross products
5x*3 = (x-2) 11
15x = 11x - 22
Subtract 11 from each side
15x-11x = -22
4x = -22
x = -22/4
x = -11/2
The answer is 52
x - the number of students in a bus
4 + 9x = 472
9x = 472 - 4
9x = 468
x = 468 / 9
x = 52
Answer:
11 mushrooms
Step-by-step explanation:
If Colin has 22 more mushrooms than Sophie, then Sofie has 22 less. Half of 22 is 11, so Colin should have 11 less, and Sophie should have 11 more. If you plug a random value into Sophie's mushrooms, this should still work. For example, if Sophie has 2 mushrooms and Colin has 24, they'll both have 13.
Perpendiculars are any lines that intersect to make or forms a right angle.
