Simplifying
3x + 4 = 7 + -2x

Reorder the terms:
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x

Solving
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2x' to each side of the equation.
4 + 3x + 2x = 7 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: 3x + 2x = 5x
4 + 5x = 7 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0
4 + 5x = 7 + 0
4 + 5x = 7

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + 5x = 7 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 5x = 7 + -4
5x = 7 + -4

Combine like terms: 7 + -4 = 3
5x = 3

Divide each side by '5'.
x = 0.6

Answer: x = 0.6

Which of the following are geometric sequences?<br> Check all that apply.
kolezko [41]

Answers:

<h2>C & D</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two general types of sequences that follow a pattern, geometric and arithmetic. Let's see the difference between the two:

An arithmetic sequence is produced by adding the same number to all the terms in the sequence.

EXAMPLE:

5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17 (The number 2 is added to all terms)

To figure out if a sequence is arithmetic, subtract the first term from the second, then the second from the third and so on until you have checked all the terms.

7 - 5 = 2

9 - 7 = 2

11 - 9 = 2

13 - 11 = 2

15 - 13 = 2

17 - 15 = 2

All results equal 2, so the sequence is arithmetic

From your list: The following sequences are arithmetic

A. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 (common difference of 5)

The next type of sequence is the geometric sequence.

A geometric sequence is produced when the all the terms in the sequence are multiplied or divided by the same number.

EXAMPLE:

100, 50, 25 (Each term is divided by 2)

To figure this out, we divide each term in the sequence by the next term.

100 / 50 = 2

50 / 25 = 2

All results are two, so this sequence can be confirmed to be geometric

From your list: The following sequences are geometric

C. 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625, 0.3125 (common quotient of 2)

D. -9, -3, -1, -1/3, -1/9, -1/27 (common quotient of -3)

There is one final type of sequence, which has no common difference, sum, quotient, or product.

EXAMPLE:

5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 15

This sequence has a pattern, the differences between the numbers are not common.

6 - 5 = 1

8 - 6 = 2

9 - 8 = 1

11 - 9 = 2

12 - 11 = 1

14 - 12 = 2

15 - 14 = 1

From your list: The following sequences are neither geometric nor arithmetic

B. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 (No pattern)

I'n always happy to help :)
