Answer:

3x + 10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This is calculated as:

Length of Tom's pencil - Length is Ellen's pencil

Length of Tom's pencil: 5x+25cm long.

Length of Ellen's pencil : 2x+15cm long.

(5x + 25)cm - (2x + 15)cm

5x + 25 - 2x - 15

5x - 2x + 25 - 15

3x + 10 cm

Therefore, Tom's pencil is 3x + 10cm longer is than Ellen's.

What is the 25th term of the arithmetic sequence -3,4,11,18,25
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

165.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term is an = a1 + (n - 1)d.

The common difference (d)  is 7 and the first term (a1)  is -3, so the 25th term

= a25 = -3 + (25-1)*7

= =3 + 24*7

= 165.

In△XYZ , XY¯¯¯¯¯¯=7in , YZ¯¯¯¯¯=5in , and XZ¯¯¯¯¯=4in . This triangle is reflected across the x-axis to result in △X'Y'Z' . Whic
ki77a [65]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection is a transformation that preserves lengths.

Triangle XYZ, with side lengths XY = 7 in, YZ = 5 in, XZ = 4 in, is reflected across the x-axis to result in △X'Y'Z'.

This means that corresponding sides have the same lengths:

  • XY = X'Y' = 7 in;
  • XZ = X'Z' = 4 in;
  • YZ = Y'Z' = 5 in.

Find the perimeters of both triangles:

P_{XYZ}=XY+XZ+YZ=7+4+5=16\ in\\ \\P_{X'Y'Z'}=X'Y'+X'Z'+Y'Z'=7+4+5=16\ in

Hence, only option B is true.

What is the simple interest value missing in the table? Principal $2,500 Interest rate 3.5% Time 5 years Interest ? $43.75 $437.
netineya [11]

Answer:

$4,3750.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest is calculated using the equation:

I = Prt

I = Interest

P = Principal

r = Rate

t = Time (years)

I = 2,500 * 3.5 * 5

43750 = 2,500 * 3.5 * 5

Therefore, the interest is $43750.00

The area of a gymnasium is (27x + 18) square units. Factor 27x + 18 to find possible dimensions of the gymnasium.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Dimension of gymnasium= 9 units and (3x+2) units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the area of a gymnasium is 27x+18 square units. We are asked to find possible dimensions of gymnasium by factoring our given expression for area of gymnasium.

Let us factor our greatest common factor of our given expression. We can see that 9 is the GCF of our given expression.

(9\times 3x+9\times 2)

Upon factoring out 9 from our given expression we will get,

9(3x+2)

Therefore, the possible dimensions of the gymnasium will be 9 units and (3x+2) units as we will get the same area for gymnasium by multiplying these both dimensions.
