Heidi solved the equation 3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4). Her steps are below: 3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x – 20 3x + 14 = 5x – 18 14 = 2x

– 18 32 = 2x 16 = x Use the drops-downs to justify how Heidi arrived at each step. Step 1: distributive property Step 2: Step 3: Step 4: Step 5:

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

Step 1: distributive property

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

Step 2: collect like terms

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

Step 3: Addition property of equality

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18

3x + 32 = 5x

Step 4: subtraction property of equality

3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x

32 = 2x

Step 5: division property of equality

32 = 2x

32/2 = 2x/2

16 = x

x = 16

Identify the 25th term of the arithmetic sequence 2, 1 and 3 over 5,
raketka [301]
First, you have to transform your numbers into proper fractions:
1 and 3/5 = (5+3)/5 = 8/5
1 and 1/5 = (5+1)/5 = 6/5

Therefore your arithmetic sequence is 2, 8/5, 6/5, ...

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between a given term and the preceding one is equal to the difference between the <span>following </span>term and the given one. In your case:
d = 8/5 - 2 = (8-10)/5 = -2/5
As a prove: d = 6/5 - 8/5 = -2/5

Now, in order to find the 25th term you need to apply the formula:
an = a + (n - 1)d
where an is the number you are looking for, a is the first term, n is the term you are looking for and d is the distance.
Hence, 
a₂₅ = 2 + (25-1)(-2/5) = 2 - 24·2/5 = 2 - 48/5 = (10-48)/5 = -38/5
