Think of this as (1/5)x - 4 = -75, where x is the number that we are trying to figure out. To figure this out, we want to get x by itself, so we can go:

(1/5)x=-71
x=-71*5
x=-355

So your number is -355

densk [106]

Answer:

√(p²-4q)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Quadratic Formula, we can say that

x = ( -p ± √(p²-4(1)(q))) / 2(1)  with the 1 representing the coefficient of x². Simplifying, we get

x = ( -p ± √(p²-4q)) / 2

The roots of the function are therefore at

x = ( -p + √(p²-4q)) / 2 and x = ( -p - √(p²-4q)) / 2. The difference of the roots is thus

( -p + √(p²-4q)) / 2 - ( ( -p - √(p²-4q)) / 2)

= 0 + 2 √(p²-4q)/2

= √(p²-4q)

Find three consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the smaller two is three times the largest increased by seven
svlad2 [7]
Let the three odd integers be x - 2, x and x + 2
x - 2 + x = 3(x + 2) + 7
2x - 2 = 3x + 6 + 7
2x - 2 = 3x + 13
3x - 2x = -2 - 13
x = -15

The three consecutive odd integers are -17, -15 and -13.
