nth term​
Mathematics

Arisa [49]3 years ago

Answer:

the first term is a1

the distance between the numbers is d

we have:

a5 = a1 + 4d = 23

a12 = a1 + 11d = 72

so we have the equation:

a1 + 4d = 23

a1 + 11d = 72

=> a1 = -5

d = 7

=> an = -5 + 7(n - 1) = 7n - 12

with an = 7n - 12

=> a2 = 2

a3 = 9

so the first three terms is -5; 2; 9

#1.) A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.

I don't want to give you the answer cause that will not help you I'm the future If I just give it to you. It might help you but that's what I learned in school is that it doesn't help. Because like if you cheat on a test you won't get to learn. But if you did it yourself and got it wrong you can see why

Which terms and 45p^4q have a GCF of 9p^3?
vredina [299]

Answer:

The answer is 18p^3r and 63p^3

Step-by-step explanation:

G.C.F of 18p^3 r and  45p^4q is = 9p^3

18p^3r = 2*3*3*p*p*p*r

45p^4q = 3*3*5*p*p*p*q

Thus the G.C.F is 3*3*p*p*p = 9p^3

G.C.F of  63p^3 and  45p^4q is = 9p^3

63p^3 = 3*3*7*p*p*p

45p^4q = 3*3*5*p*p*p*q

Thus the G.C.F is 3*3*p*p*p = 9p^3

Therefore the answer is 18p^3r and 63p^3....
