Answer» For the sequence to be proportion, we need to ensure that term1/term2 = term3/term4 ... Define x: Let x be the number that we need to add to each number Solve x: Sequence = 10, 18, 22, 38 (term 1 + x) /(term 2 + x) = (term 3 + x) / term 4 + x) (10 + x) / (18 + x) = (22 + x) / (38 + x) (10 + x)(38 + x) = (18 + x) (22 + x) 380 + 10x + 38x + x² = 396 + 18x + 22x + x² 380 + 48x + x² = 396 + 40x + x² 48x - 40x = 396 - 3808x = 16x=2 |
