A looks like the correct answer
Answer:
B/ x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Just take 2x to another side to be neg-, the same thing with 4 , then divide it both sides by 4 to get the answer.
Consider that the three consecutive integers are:
least integer = n
middle integer = n + 1
greatest integer = n + 2
THe expression "three consecutive integers is 12 less than 4 times the middle integer" can be written as follow:
n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 4(n +1) - 12
In order to find the numbers, proceed as follow:
n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 4(n +1) - 12 cancel parenthesis
n + n + 1 + n + 2 = 4n + 4 - 12 simplify like terms
3n + 3 = 4n - 8 subtract 4n and 3 both sides
3n - 4n = - 8 - 3
-n = -11
n = 11
Hence, the three consecutive integers are:
n = 11
n + 1 = 12
n + 2 = 13
9/10 = z/8
cross multiply
9/10(10)(8) = z/8(8)(10)
9(8) = z(10)
72 = 10z
Isolate the z, divide 10 from both sides
72/10 = 10z/10
z = 72/10
z = 7.2
7.2, or D) is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
28 times 2 = 56
28 times 1 = 28
56 + 28 = 84
