Step1: Define an odd integer.
Define the first odd integer as (2n + 1), for n = 0,1,2, ...,
Note that n is an integer that takes values 0,1,2, and so no.

Step 2: Create four consecutive odd integers.
Multiplying n by 2 guarantees that 2n will be zero or an even number.
Therefore (2n + 1) is guaranteed to be an odd number.
By adding 2 to the odd integer (2n+1), the next number (2n+3) will also be an odd integer.

Let the four consecutive odd integers be
2n+1, 2n +3, 2n +5, 2n +7 

Step 3: require that the four consecutive integers sum to 160.
Because the sum of the four consecutive odd integers is 160, therefore
2n+1 + 2n+3 + 2n+5 + 2n +7 = 160
8n + 16 = 160
8n = 144
n = 18

Because 2n = 36, the four consecutive odd integers are 37, 39, 41, 43.

Answer: 37,39,41,43

A camera rental company charges a fixed amount plus a fee based on the number of days for which the camera is rented. The graph
bija089 [108]
Given:
x   y
0  40
4  120

y = fixed amount + v(x)
y = 40 + v(0)
y = 40

y = 40 + v(x)
120 = 40 + v(4)
120 - 40 = v(4)
80 = v(4)
80/4 = v
20 = v

y = 40 + 20x

The fixed amount charged is 40.

The variable amount is 20 per day.

A bag contains blue marbles and red marbles, 107 in total. The number of blue marbles is 7 more than 4 times the number of red m
Ratling [72]

Answer: red is 13.36

Blue is 93.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the red marbles be y

Based on the question,red is 4times which means 4y

And blue is 7times greater than red which means 7(4y)

Blue + red=107

7(4y) + 4y=107

28y+4y=107

32y=107

Divide both sides by 32

Y=3.34

Red =4y

Red= 4(3.34)

Red =13.36

Blue= 7(4y)

Blue=7(4×3.34)

Blue= 93.625
