Let consecutive odd numbers be  

x , x+2 , x+4

Smallest number =x

Middle number =x+2

Largest number =x+4

According to condition (x) +(x+2) -27 = 3(x+4)

                                      x+x+2-27= 3(x+4)

                                      2x-25= 3x+12

Subtracting 2x and 12 both sides

                                   2x-25-2x-12=3x+12-2x-12

                                     -37= x   this is smallest odd number.

Other two odd numbers are (x+2)= (-37+2)=(-35)

                             &                (x+4)=(-37+4)=(-33)

so three consecutive odd numbers are -37 ,-35 , -33

Verdich [7]

Answer:

x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Ratio= 5:2:x

Combined ratio= 5+2+x

                        = 7+x

Total amount of money= $15000

Let us apply the part to all method

Hence for Matthew whose share = $7500

5/7+x=  7500/15000

Cross multiply we have

7500*(7+x)= 15000*5

52500+7500x= 75000

Collect like terms we have

7500x= 75000-52500

7500x=22500

x= 22500/7500

x=3

Hence the value of x= 3

Look for a number that can divide equally into 51.
51/3=17
Therefore she made 17 groups with 3 bears in each group.

Write an equation that represents the function. (linear equations)
irinina [24]

Answer:

y = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve for the slope using \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

\frac{8-2}{3-0} = 2

Plug the slope into the slope intercept form equation y = mx + b

y = 2x + b

To solve for b, plug in any (x, y) point on the table.

2 = 2(0) + b

2 = b

Now you can plug the b value into your equation.

y = 2x + 2
