A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32

Answer:
(-6, 0) and (3, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you meant f(x) = (x + 6)(x - 3). This graph intersects the x-axis in two places: (-6, 0) and (3, 0). These are the "x-intercepts."
Answer:
C. One-fourth mile over thirty-six seconds = 25 miles per hour.
We have been given that an elephant can run one over four of a mile in 36 seconds.
To find elephant's rate in miles per hour, we will convert our given time in hours as shown below:
Therefore, option C is the correct choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
Donny drove 70 miles.
Since 60 miles per hour is 1 mile a minute so for in 45 minutes he drove 45 miles. After he drove for 50 miles for thirty minutes so in totally he drove 25 since 50 divided by two is 25.
