Answer:
The common ratio is 5 and the 5th term is 1250
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio is given by
r=U(2)/U (1)
=10/2
=5
The fifth term
U (n)=ar^n-1
U(5)=2(5)^5-1
=2×5^4
=2×625
=1250
5x-2+3x=17+12x-23 combine like terms
8x-2=12x-6
-8x -8x
-2=4x-6
+6 +6
4=4x divide each side by 4
x=1
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
12 = 24 - 4 (-6 x - 3)
-4 (-6 x - 3) = 24 x + 12:
12 = 24 x + 12 + 24
Grouping like terms, 24 x + 12 + 24 = 24 x + (12 + 24):
12 = 24 x + (12 + 24)
12 + 24 = 36:
12 = 24 x + 36
12 = 24 x + 36 is equivalent to 24 x + 36 = 12:
24 x + 36 = 12
Subtract 36 from both sides:
24 x + (36 - 36) = 12 - 36
36 - 36 = 0:
24 x = 12 - 36
12 - 36 = -24:
24 x = -24
Divide both sides of 24 x = -24 by 24:
(24 x)/24 = (-24)/24
24/24 = 1:
x = (-24)/24
The gcd of -24 and 24 is 24, so (-24)/24 = (24 (-1))/(24×1) = 24/24×-1 = -1:
