Let $x$ by the smallest of the 6 integers. Then

$x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4)+(x+5)=204$

$\implies6x+15=204$

$\implies6x=189$

But 189 is odd, so it cannot be divisible by 6, which means $x$ is not an integer...

Solve the equation using the quadratic formula. x^2-4x+3=0

almond37 [142]

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x2−4x+3=0

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.

(x−1)(x−3)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.
x-1=0 or x-3=0

For this one add one on both sides
x−1+1=0+1 x=1
For this one add 3 on both sides
x−3+3=0+3. x=3

x=1 or x=3

y+29+40+2y=180°( sum of angle in straight line)

or, y+2y+29+40=180°

or,3y+69=180

or,3y=180-69

or,3y=111

or,y=111/3

y=37

Jose car rental company charges $2.75 for a pick up plus $1.25 for each mile driven. How much would you pay to travel 25 miles ?

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

$34 and 77.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount for traveling 25 miles is shown below:

Since it is given that the rental company charges $2.75 plus $1.25 for each mile

So for 25 miles, the cost you have to pay is

= $2.75 + 25 miles × $1.25

= $2.75 + $31.25

= $34

Now for traveling for $100, the miles should be traveled is

= ($100 - $2.75) ÷ 1.25

= 77.8 miles

Hence, the same is to be considered
