Answer:
The set of natural numbers is the set of all positive integers, then this set is:
{1, 2, 3, ...}
and the 24th letter of the alphabet is x
Now we want to write the expression given in the sentence "It is one more than the sum of the first three natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"
We can "break" this in parts, so it is easier to understand.
Then:
"...the sum of the first 3 natural numbers..."
is:
1 + 2 + 3
Then:
"...the sum of the first 3 natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"
This can be written as:
(1 + 2 + 3) + x
Now we can analyze the complete sentence:
"It is one more than the sum of the first three natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"
This is equal to the expression we found above plus one, then we can write this as:
[(1 + 2 + 3) + x] + 1
[6 + x] + 1
6 + x + 1
7 + x

"3 miles below sea level" may be written as -3. The negative indicates you are below sea level. Going above sea level means the value would be positive.
"earning 45 dollars" can be written as +45 or simply 45. If you lost 45 dollars, then it would be -45. If you are in debt 45 dollars, then it would be -45.
"moving back 5 spaces" is represented by -5 whereas moving forward 5 spaces is +5 or simply 5.
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale factor is
28/8 = 7/2
We take the ratio of the larger side over the smaller side
Using ratios we can find the sides
28 21
----- = ---------
8 x
Using cross products
28x = 21*8
28x =168
Divide each side by 28
28x/28 = 168/28
x =6
