Is 2 and 7 eighths greater than 2 and one half.

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To clarify this convert the question into a fraction to make it look like this 2 7/8 and 2 1/2.  1/2 is 50% and 7/8 is 87.5%, the better percentage, the greater the number is.

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.

5x+2x=49

7x=49

x=7. 35 apples
