Answer:
11 and 13
Step-by-step explanation:
the first (smaller) odd integer can be called x
the second (larger) odd integer can be called x+2
2(x+2)+x = 37
<em>[simplify . . .]</em>
2x+4+x = 37
3x+4 = 37
<em>[subtract 4 from each side]</em>
3x = 33
<em>[divide each side by 3; find smaller odd integer]</em>
x = 11
<em>[add 2 to find larger odd integer]</em>
x+2 = 13
Set up a proportion:
3/4/24 = 1/x
Cross multiply:
3/4x = 24
Divide 3/4 to both sides or multiply by its reciprocal, 4/3:
x = 24 * 4/3
x = 96/3
x = 32
So you had a total of 32 muffins, now subtract this from the amount that blew away to find out how many you have left:
32 - 24 = 8
So you have 8 muffins left.
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
there is no y intercept but it is 3/4 when you simplify
Here is your solution.. hope it helps
