The fifth term of an arithmetic sequence is equal to 6 and the sum of the first 12 terms is 45. Find the first term and the common difference.

Arithmatic term n, Un= U1+(n-1)d. Where U1 is the first term of the sequence and d is the common difference. U5=U1+4d=6. U1=6-4d. Sum of arithmatic terms up to term n, Sn=n/2(2U1+(n-1)d). S12=12/2(2(6-4d)...

A scalene triangle has 3 angles ABC in degrees, where A = (3x + 7), B = (4x + 5), C = (x + 8). Find the value of largest angle.

Equate all the angles to 180 degrees.3x+7+4x+5+x+8=1808x+20=1808x=160Therefore, x=20.Hence, A=3(20)+7=67B=4(20)+5=85C=20+8=28
