Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If its an AS it well have a common difference, so 3rd term - 2nd term should = 2nd term - first term:-

29 + x - (28 - x) = 28 - x - (15 + x)

2x + 1 = 13 - 2x

4x = 12

x = 3.

The sequence is

15 + 3, 28-3, 29 + 3

= 18, 25, 32

which is arithmetic with common difference 7.

What is the y cordinate of the solution solve 8 and 9

Flauer [41]

Answer:

8) The y coordinate of the solution: 4

9) Average of change from x = 2 to x = 4: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 2

y = x^2 + 3

x^2 + 3 = 2x + 2

x^2 - 2x + 3 - 2 = 0

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0

(x - 1)^2 = 0

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

Plug in x = 1 into either those 2 equations to find y

y = 2(1) + 2 = 4

y = (1)^2 + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4

Answer:

The y coordinate of the solution is 4

p(x) = x^2 + 5x - 2

p(2) = 2^2 + 5(2) - 2 = 4 + 10 - 2 = 12

p(4) = 4^2 + 5(4) - 2 = 16 + 20 - 2 = 34

Average of change from x = 2 to x = 4:

[p(4) - p(2)]/[(x(4) - x(2)] = (34 - 12)/(4-2) = 22 /2 = 11

Answer:

Average of change from x = 2 to x = 4 :11
