2,5,10,17,26 find the next two terms

The next two terms would be 37 and 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pattern in this problem is every time, you are adding by two more. For example, in this problem you have 2,5,10.

2+3=5 and 5+5=10

The difference between 5 and 3 is 2 so you are adding by two more each time.

Hope this helps,

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
