I hope this helps. X is equal to 4 and -9
If a = first term and r = common ratio we have
a + ar + ar^2 = 13 and ar^2 / a = r^2 = 9
so r = 3
and a + 3a + 9a = 13
so a = 1
so they are 1,3 and 9
2.
in geometric series we have
4 , 4r ,4r^2 , 60
Arithmetic;
4, 4r , 4r + d , 4r + 2d
so we have the system of equations
4r + 2d = 60
4r^2 = 4r + d
From first equation
2r + d = 30
so d = 30 - 2r
Substitute for d in second equation:-
4r^2 - 4r - (30-2r) = 0
4r^2 - 2r - 30 =0
2r^2 - r - 15 = 0
(r - 3)(2r + 5) = 0
r = 3 or -2.5
r must be positive so its = 3
and d = 30 - 2(3) = 24
and the numbers are 4*3 = 12 , 4*3^2 = 36
first 3 are 4 , 12 and 36 ( in geometric)
and last 3 are 12, 36 and 60 ( in arithmetic)
The 2 numbers we ause are 12 and 36.
To divide rational numbers, you turn the division problem into a multiplication problem by flipping the second rational number. Then you go ahead and multiply the tops and bottoms together to get your answer. If you can simplify your problem before multiplication, you can go ahead and do so to make your problem easier.
