Please help me with this problems it very urgent.
X, X^2, 3X^2
in the sequence above the first term is X and each term is the presiding term multiply by a constant. What is the value of X?
@blallalalla Where are these questions from? And why is it “urgent?”
You can solve 1. by drawing out the triangle very carefully and counting the interior (note: interior) points.
For 2., X^2 and 3X^2 are consecutive terms, so you can determine what the “constant” is. Then what is the value of X? (note: this assumes X ≠ 0, otherwise we would have 0,0,0 and the constant is indeterminate)
I like question 2.
Note @MITer94 - you really should have called him or texted him. He said it was VERY URGENT!!! >:)
@thshadow I guess I should have. You never know, maybe someone had to go to the ER because of a couple math problems…
This is why I don’t really like threads with “urgent” because 99% of such threads really aren’t “urgent.”
The reason why I asked where the questions are from is because the wording is very awkward (including a misspelling, should be “preceding”). Then again, OP probably typed it himself.
I guess I hadn’t considered the fact that maybe this person is stuck in a real-life Saw IX. You know, some horrible device strapped to his head, a PC within reach taunting him with these math problems that he needs to solve to save his life, when suddenly he somehow hacks his way over to CC… But the clock is ticking…
In fact, I hate to say this, but maybe he hasn’t replied because it’s already too late…
In my book, “urgent” implies a call to 911 has been made.
I’ve got to wonder what their response was.
