Write and solve an inequality to find three consecutive whole numbers with a sum between 13 and 16

Answer:

13 < 3x+3 < 16

4, 5, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that the numbers are consecutive, so they are one after another on the number line. If the smallest one is x, the next one is x+1 and the next is x+2. The sum of them is x+x+1+x+2, or 3x+3. The sum is more than 13 and less than 16 because the problem says between, not equal to or between. To solve, subtract 3 from all three sides of the inequality to get "10 < 3x < 13". Finally, divide all of the sides by 3 to get "3.33 < x < 4.33". The only whole number in between those is 4, so the smallest number of the sequence is 4. The following numbers are 5 (x+1, 4+1) and 6 (x+2, 4+2).

1.The norm is 45 sit-ups in a minute.The students did, 64, 69,65 and 67. Values are not accurate compared to standard value 45.

Values are precise

Answer--Precise

2. Average score is 89.5

  Scores are 89,93,91,87

  Values are precise i.e a difference of 2 from each score

  Values are accurate because the average score is 90 thus compared to      the known average score of 89.5 they are accurate.

Answer-Both

3. Yesterday temperature=89

   Tomorrow=88

    Next day=90

   Average =75

   Values are precise i.e. difference of ± 1°

   Values are not accurate compared to the average temperatures of 75 F

   Answer---Precise

5. The jar contained 568 pennies

   The 6 people guessed the numbers as

    735,209,390,300,1005, 689
