1. not sure how to work out without an = ?
2. x = -12
3. x = -5
4. z = -16
This is a horribly worded and created problem. They're missing certain factors required to set up an equation
Answer:
1.x=15
2.<A=29
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x-1)+(3x+9)+(6x+7)=180
2x-1+3x+9+6x+7=180
11x+15=180
11x=180-15
11x=165
x=165/11
x=15
2.<A=2x-1
<A=2*15-1
<A=30-1
<A=29
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the terms are in an arithmetic progression then there is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is
2x - 1 - (x + 1) = x + 5 - (2x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
2x - 1 - x - 1 = x + 5 - 2x + 1, that is
x - 2 = - x + 6 ( add x to both sides )
2x - 2 = 6 ( add 2 to both sides )
2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 4
The 3 terms are 5, 7, 9
