If 2t-3, 5t+1, 4t-7, are the consecutive terms of an
arithmetical progression, then the middle term is the arithmetical mean of its neighbor
terms.
5t+1=(2t-3+4t-7)/2
We'll
combine like terms inside
brackets:
5t+1=(6t-10)/2
5t+1=2(3t-5)/2
5t+1=3t-5
We'll
move the terms in t to the left side and the numbers alone to the right
side:
5t-3t=-1-5
2t=-6
t=-6/2
t=-3
Since
the coefficients a,b,c are depending on t, we'll determine
them:
a = 2t - 3
a = -6 -
3
a = -9
b = 5t +
1
b = -15+1
b =
-14
c = 4t - 7
c = -12 -
7
c = -19
The quadratic
equation is: -9x^2 - 14x - 19 = 0
We'll multiply by -1 and
we'll get:
9x^2 + 14x + 19 =
0
