ANSWER:

Let the smallest integer = x

x + x + 1 = 3 ( x + 2 ) - 17

2x + 1 = 3x + 6 - 17

2x - 3x = 6 - 17 - 1

- x = - 12

x = 12

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the smallest integer is 12.

In 2008 election there was 28 blue states and 22 red states express the red and blue states as fractions in lowest terms of the
Basile [38]
Let's start with the blue states. Out of 50 states, 28 of them were blue.
Therefore, the fraction would be 28/50. Let's reduce it.
28/50=14/25 --> these are the lowest terms for this fraction
Use a calculator to find the decimal solution --> 14/25= .56

Now, let's do the red states. Out of the 50 states, 22 of them were blue.
22/50=11/25 --> lowest terms
Use a calculator --> 11/25= .43

What is the unit rate for 16 ounces (pint) at $3.93?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

25 cents/ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit rate means how much is one of the thing you are working with.  In this case, the unit rate of a pint (16 ounces) is how much just one ounce will cost.  So divide $3.93 by 16

$3.93/16 =  $0.245625

Since we're working with money, round to the nearest hundredth

Unit rate is $0.25 per ounce, or 25 cents per ounce
