Answer:

11 13 15 17 19

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve this word problem using 2k+1 which is one of the general forms of an odd integer.

Let 2k+1 be the first odd integer.

(2k+1) + (2k+3) + (2k +5) =  (2k+7) + (2k +9) + 3 (the +3 is to accommodate for the left side being 3 more than the right)

Solve for k

6k + 9 = 4k + 19

6k - 4k + 9 = 4k-4k + 19

2k + 9 = 19

2k + 9 - 9 = 19 - 9

2k = 10

2k/2 = 10/2

k = 5

To get the first digit in the series plug in 5 for k

2k+1

2(5) + 1

10 + 1 = 11

So our series is 11, 13, 15, 17, 19

Let's test it.

11 + 13 +15 = 39

17 + 19 = 36

So we are correct, the first 3 integers are 3 more that the sum of the last 2.

A person spends 1/5 of his salary on rent, 3/7 on food, 1/3 on other expenses and saves the rest. If she earns $21,000 per month
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

$9600 saving / year

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 of $21000 = 21000 / 5 = $4200 / month on rent

3/7 of $21000 = (21000 / 7) x 3 = $9000 / month on food (shocking right :) food is expensive)

1/3 of $21000 = 21000 / 3 = $7000 on other expenses / month

total savings/month = salary/month - rent/month - food/month - other expenses/month

total savings/month = 21000 - 4200 - 9000 - 7000

total savings/month = $800

<u><em>BUT</em></u> the question asks for savings per year. therefore, we must multiply the savings per month by total months per year (12)

800 x 12 = $9600

the person's total savings per year, with a salary of $21000 per month, is equal to $9600 per year
