55,000 + 2,500x = 62,000 + 2,000x

subtract 55,000 from both sides
2,500x = 7,000 + 2,000x

now subtract 2,000x from both sides

500x = 7,000
x= 14 years

3 feet of ribbons are needed for wrapping each present. How many presents can be wrapped with 102cm of ribbons?
bagirrra123 [75]

1 imperial foot has approximately 30.48 metric centimeters, and for one present we need 3 ft, or namely 3(30.48) cm, how many can we get from 102 cm?   102 ÷ 3(30.48) ≈ 1.1155, so barely just one present.

Is this sequence arithmetic,<br> geometric<br> or neither?<br> 3.5. -4, -7.5...
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sequence was geometric, each term would be multiplied by the same multiplier to get to the next one. We can check if the multiplier is the same by taking a term and dividing it by the term before it. For example,

-4/3.5=-1.14285714

-7.5/-4=1.87500

The multiplier between the terms aren't the same so it's not geometric.

For arithmetic, the distances between each term would be the same, and we can take the same idea from the geometric sequence, but use subtraction instead of division

-4-3,5=-7.5

-7.5-(-4)=-3.5

Again, the distances aren't the same, so it's not arithmetic.

Two sides of a triangle measure 27 inches and 32 inches. Which could represent the length of the third side?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The third side could have dimension x

32 - 27 < x < 32 + 27

         5 < x < 59

There are a few special triangles

Equilateral triangle could have legs

27, 32, <u>27</u>

or

32, 27,<u> 32</u>

A right triangle could have the third side

√(27² + 32²) = <u>√1753</u> which is about<u> 41.87</u>

or

√(32² - 27²) = <u>√295</u> which is about <u>17.18</u>

Notice all these fit within the original limits specified.

Is the given sequence arithmetic? If so, identify the common difference. 3.2, 3.5, 3.8, 4.1, . . .
sweet [91]
3.5 - 3.2 = 3.8 - 3.5 = 4.1 - 3.8 = 0.3 (common difference)
