Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
The following equation can be derived from the question
Let x = unknown number
5 + 2x = 3x - 2
collect like terms
5 + 2 = 3x - 2x
x = 7
12c=22
6c=11
c=1 5/6
20c=33
c= 1 13/20
5/6 is about .83
13/20 is .65
12 chocolate bars for $22 is about $1.83 each
20 chocolate bars for $33 is $1.65 each
The 20 chocolate bars for $33 dollars has a better unit rate and is a better buy.
The 8 pack of 1 quart bottles of lemonade is the higher price unit because 4 gallons equal 16 quarts. 16 divided by 2= 8 and 24 divided by 2 =12 dollars. so therefore 8 quarts of "lovin lemon" company is $12 and 8 quarts of "sweet and sour" company is $16 so THE ANSWER IS: "SWEET AND SOUR" COMPANY HAS THE HIGHER UNIT RATE.
1/2 over -2/5 + (-1/4)
10/20 over -8/20 + (-5/20)
1 5/20 + (-5/20)
1
The answer is 1
Answer:
23 is the smallest number
Step-by-step explanation:
Three consecutive numbers are numbers that come in a row. So if the first number is n then the next is n+1 and the following is n+2.
All together they add to 72.
So n + n+1 +n +2 = 72.
3n + 3 = 72
3n = 69
n = 23
