Answer:

A. 10x=350

B. 35 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

So the first piece is x, and the second is 3 times as long, so the second is 3x, and the third pice is twice as long has the second piece which is 3x, so third piece is 6x. The total is 350 inches, so x+3x+6x=350. Simplify that so you get 10x=350. Divide both sides by 10, and you get x=35 inches. Hope that helps!

In the sequence 400, 200, 150, 75, 25...... what number comes next
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The next term in the sequence = -175

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given sequence is : 400, 200, 150, 75, 25...

Now here, in the given sequence,

First Term - Second Term = 400 - 200 = 200

Second Term -   Third Term   =  200  - 150  = 50

Third term  - Fourth Term  = 150 - 75   = 75

Fourth term - Fifth term = 75 - 25 =  50

So, following this pattern,

Fifth Term - Sixth term = 200

Or, 25 - Sixth Term = 200

or, Sixth term  =  25 - 200  = - 175

Hence, the next term in the sequence = -175

He solution is n = –2 verified as a solution to the equation 1.4n + 2 = 2n + 3.2. What is the last line of the justification?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

-0.8=-0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that n=-2 verified as a solution to the equation 1.4n+2=2n+3.2.

As n=-2 is the solution for our given equation, so it will satisfy our equation.

Let us substitute n=-2 is our given equation.

1.4*-2+2=2*-2+3.2

-2.8+2=-4+3.2

-0.8=-0.8

Since the value of n satisfies our equation, therefore, last line of the justification will be -0.8=-0.8.
