Answer 1

To determine the next term in the sequence 30, 27.5, 25, we first look for a pattern.

1. The first term is 30.
2. The second term is 27.5, which is 30 - 2.5.
3. The third term is 25, which is 27.5 - 2.5.

It appears that each term is decreasing by 2.5. If we continue this pattern:

25 - 2.5 = 22.5

Therefore, the next term in the sequence is 22.5.
