Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The points seem to be clustered around a curve.
Let us assume the first odd integer to be = x
Then
The consecutive middle odd integer = x + 2
The third consecutive odd integer = x + 4
So we can now write the equation as
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 5(x + 2) - 18
3x + 6 = 5x + 10 - 18
3x + 6 = 5x - 8
3x - 5x = - 8 - 6
- 2x = - 14
2x = 14
x = 14/2
= 7
So the first odd integer is 7
The second consecutive odd integer = (x + 2)
= (7 + 2)
= 9
The third consecutive odd integer = (x + 4)
= 7 + 4)
= 11
So the three consecutive odd integers are 7, 9, 11.
7 squared equals 7 times 7

Step-by-step explanation:
The cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t = cost/pound of trail mix
Let j = cost/pound of jelly beans
5t + 6j = 35
3t + 2j = 15 = > 2j = 15 - 3t
5t + 3(15 - 3t) = 35
5t + 45 - 9t = 35
- 4t + 45 = 35
- 4t = - 10
4t = 10
t = 2.5
3(2.5) + 2j = 15
7.5 + 2j = 15
2j = 7.5
j = 3.75
