Answer: 30.5 and 35.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a system of linear equations to find out the answer to this problem. The larger number will be x and the smaller number will be y.

x=y+5

x+y=66

Substitute y+5 in for the bottom equation to get y+5+y=66. Simplify to get 2y+5=66. Subtract 5 from both sides and get 2y=61. Divide by 2 to get y=30.5. This is the smaller number. Add 5 to get the bigger number, which is 35.5

Which of the following sequences are not geometric? (check all that apply) a. 2,10,50,250,1250 b. 1,4,9,16,25,36 c. -4,-2,-1,-0.
Romashka [77]
A is geometric because each number is multiplied by 5.

B is not geometric because it is an arithmetic sequence. 

C is a geometric sequence because each number is divided by 2.

D is neither geometric not arithmetic because there is no common ratio and there is not a pattern being added or subtracted to each number.

So, your answer should be B and D.

If P = (-2,-1) and Q = (4,3) are the
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(-2,-1) and Q(4,3)

average of x-coordinates = (-2+4)/2 = 1

average of y-coordinates = (-1+3)/2 = 1

midpoint of PQ: (1,1)

distance between midpoint and Q = √((4-1)²+(3-1)²) = √13

(x-1)² + (y-1)² = 13
