Answer:
n = the first
n + 1 = the 2nd
n + 2 = the 3rd
n(n + 2) - (n + 1) = 10(n + 2) + 1
n2 + 2n - n - 1 = 10n + 20 + 1
n2 - 9n - 22 = 0
(n - 11)(n + 2) = 0
If two factors = 0, at least one must = 0.
n - 11 = 0
n = 11
11,12,13
n + 2 = 0
n = -2
-2,-1,0
Answer:
Since both values are negative, it can be found in the 3rd quadrant

Answer:
-5 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
3^(x-1) = 9^(x+2)
Replace 9 with 3^2
3^(x-1) = 3^2^(x+2)
We know that a power to a power means the powers are multiplied
a^b^c = a^(b*c)
3^(x-1) = 3^(2x+2)
When the bases are the same, the powers have to be the same
x-1 = 2x+4
Subtract x from each side
x-x-1 =2x-x+4
-1 =x+4
Subtract 4 from each side
-1-4 =x+4-4
-1-4 = x
-5 =x
