X, X+2, and X+4 are the three odd integers.
2(X)+(X+4)=25 represents the problem.
2X+X+4=25
3X+4=25
3X=25-4
3X=21
X=7

The three consecutive odd integers : <u>7, 9, 11</u>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Algebraic expressions in mathematics are a combination of coefficients, numbers, variables, constants and arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

The main composition of algebraic expressions are:

• 1. phrases

algebraic forms separated by arithmetic operations

consists of one phrase (monomial) to many phrases (polynomial)

• 2. variable

is a value that can be changed, can be in the form of letters, for example, x, y, a, b, etc.

• 3. constants

is a fixed value, can be a number

• 4. arithmetic operations

<h3>+ , - , : , x</h3>

integer number: numbers consist of positive, negative and 0 numbers

Odd number: Any integer that cannot be divided by 2.

The last digit is 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9

Because it is divided by 2, the difference between the two numbers is also 2 for consecutive numbers

Then consecutive odd numbers can be symbolized:

x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, x + 8, etc.

For example, 3 consecutive odd numbers are:

x + 4, x + 6, x + 8

the sum of the largest and twice the smallest is 25, can be expressed in terms of arithmetic operations:

(x + 8) + 2 (x + 4) = 25

So the solution:

x + 8 + 2x + 8 = 25

3x + 16 = 25

3x = 9

x = 3

So the smallest number is:

= x + 4

= 3 + 4

= 7

Answer:

The value of x in this equation is -23

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

-x-8 = 15

The given equation is a linear equation in one variable. The solution of the equation requires isolating x on one side of the equation.

Properties of equality will be used to find the solution.

Using Addition property of equality

Adding 8 on both sides

-x-8+8 = 15+8\\-x = 23

Multiplication property of equality

Multiplying both sides by -1

x = -23

Verification:

-x-8 = 15\\-(-23)-8 = 15\\23-8 = 15\\15 = 15

Hence,

The value of x in this equation is -23

Fawn plants 2/3 of the garden with vegetables. Her son plants the remainder of the garden. He decides to use 1/2 of his plant fl
bulgar [2K]

Given that Fawn plants vegetables into garden = \frac{2}{3}

Exact amount of garden is not given so we can assume that amount of garden is 1.

Then remaining amount of garden =1-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{3}{3}-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{3-2}{3}=\frac{1}{3}

Now half of the remaining part of garden that is half of \frac{1}{3} rd part of garden is planted with flowers

so that will be \frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{6}

Hence required fraction for the answer will be 1/6.
