Answer:

3/2x-2>5 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Two less than a number means we are subtracting 2, so we can write it into the equation as -2.

Since we dont know the value of x, we can just write 3/2 of x by multiplying 3/2 by x. So 3/2x. Also, since we are subtracting two from 3/2x, -2 comes after 3/2x.

Now, since it says that it is more than 5 1/2, we could use the greater than sign (>), to express that. So >5 1/2

Our final expression is 3/2x-2>5 1/2.

Hope this helps!

33+34+35+36+...+104 what is the sum of the sequence?

Ray Of Light [21]

This is an arithmetic series, so we know, that:

Sum = (First term + Last term) * Number of terms /2

Here we have:

First term = 33
Last term = 104
Number of terms = 104 - 33 + 1 = 72

and

$S=(33+104)\cdot\dfrac{72}{2}=137\cdot36=\boxed{4932}$
