The three numbers are 12, 18 and 24

Arithmetic progression

Let the 3 number in arithmetic progression be:

a-d, d, a+d ...

If their sum is 3, then;

a-d+d+a+d = 3

2a + d = 3 ........... 1

If the sum of their squares is 11, then;

(a-d)² + d² + (a+d)² = 11

a²-2ad+d²+d²+a²+2ad+d²  11

2a²+3d² = 11 ....... 2

Solving the equations simultaneously, d = 6 and a = 12

First-term = 12

second term = 18

Thirs term = 24

Hence the three numbers are 12, 18 and 24

Hope this helps you!!!!!! :D

Answer:

-3, 1, -1 or -1, 1, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create the equation of x + x+d + x+2d = 3 or use the sum formula to end up with x = 1-d.

We can then calculate d by using 11 and creating an equation like this.

x^2 + (x+d)^2 + (x+2d)^2 = 11 -> (1-d)^2 + (1)^2 + (1+d)^2 =11 which ends up with d equaling -2 or 2

If we plug d into the sum formula we get

(2x + 2 * 2)/2 *3 =3

and

(2x + 2 * -2)/2 *3 =3

This leaves us with starting terms -1 and 3. We can then finish the arithmetic sequence for each case by just using d.

The physical education instructor asked each student to do a total of 36 pull-ups and push-ups in 1 minute. The instructor wante
NeTakaya

Answer: Pull-ups = 4 and push up = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents number of pull ups in one minute.

And, y represents number of push ups in one minute.

Therefore, According to the question,

Each student to do a total of 36 pull-ups and push-ups in 1 minute.

⇒ x+y= 36

But, again from equation, The instructor wanted students to do 8 times as many push-ups as pull-ups.

Therefore, 8x = y

Thus, required system of linear equations that represents this situation is,

x+y= 36 and 8x = y , where x is the number of pull ups and y is the number of push ups in one minute.

By solving these two equations we get, x=4 and y= 32

That is, In one minute 4 pull ups and 32 push ups are required.
