What is the sum of two consecutive even integers divided by four is 189.5?
mixas84 [53]
Let us denote the smaller even integer by N.
Then, the next even integer must be N+2.

To verify, set N as any even number, say 174.
Then, the next even integer must be 2 more than this number, i.e. 174+2=176.

The sum of these two consecutive even integers can be expressed as:
                                    N+(N+2)=2N+2

We are told that this sum divided by four is 189.5, i.e.
                                     (2N+2)\div4=189.5

Multiplying both sides by 4 will reverse the division:
     (2N+2)\div4\times4=189.5\times4
     (2N+2)\times1=758

Subtracting 2 from each side will reverse the addition:
     2N+2-2=758-2
     2N=756

Dividing both sides by 2 will reverse the multiplication:
     2N\div2=756\div2
     N=378

Therefore, the two consecutive integers must be 378 and 380.

Check this:
     (378+380)\div4=758\div4=189.5

Compared to last year, the population of boom town has increased by 25%. The population is now 6,600. What was the population la
prisoha [69]

Answer:

5280people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Percentage increase of population  = 25%

Population now = 6600

Unknown:

Population last year = ?

Solution:

Let the population last year = y;

   Then;

   Percentage of last years population plus the population of last year should give us this year's population;

         (\frac{25}{100} of y) + y  = 6600  

           0.25y + y = 6600

            1.25y = 6600

                   y = \frac{6600}{1.25}   = 5280people

Last year, there was 5280people in the locality.

How to solve -27/x^15
kompoz [17]

Answer:

\frac{-27}{x^{15}}=-\frac{27}{x^{15}}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>If you just want to simplify -27/x^15, it is not very difficult. Here is the simple way.</em>

<em />

Given the expression

\frac{-27}{x^{15}}

solving

\frac{-27}{x^{15}}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}

=-\frac{27}{x^{15}}

Therefore,

\frac{-27}{x^{15}}=-\frac{27}{x^{15}}
