If x is the first of the integers then the statement is:

(x) , (x+2) , (x+4) , (x+6)

This means that the smallest is x and the largest is x + 6

so:
3(x) + 2(x+6) = 293
3x + 2x + 12 = 293
5x = 281
x = 56.2
This gives us a none integer (decimal)
What now?

Wait remember how x started as the lowest? what if x was the highest instead?

x, x-2, x-4, x-6
so:

3(x-6) + 2(x) = 293
5x = 315
x = 62.2

This is as close as have gotten to the answer
Cant seem to get an integer.
Maybe error in the question or some bad math on my part.

Bill and Amy want to ride their bikes from their neighbourhood to school which is 14.4 kilometers away. It takes Amy 40 minutes
olga55 [171]
You can use the equation d=rt
Amy 14.4=40r    r=0.36 kilometers/minute
Bill 14.4=20r    r= 0.72 kilometers/minute   
Amy (0.36 kilometers/minute)(60 seconds/1000 meters)= 0.0216 meters/second
Bill (0.72 kilometers/minute)(60 seconds/1000 meters)=0.0432 meters/second

0.0432-0.0216=0.0216 meters/second faster than Amy

ABCD is a quadilateral. Calculate the value of x.
tresset_1 [31]
Since ABCD is a quadrilateral,
We know that sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral =360
=>A+B+C+D=360
=>2x+90+x +3x=360
=>6x+90=360
=>6x=360-90
=>6x=270
=>x =270/6
=>x =45
