(X)+(X+1)=24
"consecutive" means right after the other, so, if the first one is (X), the second integer <u>must be</u> (X+1). The answer 24 is given so you just have to solve the equation.
2X+1=24
2X=23
X=11.5
The answer is y = 3x - 2. To find slope, you subtract y2 - y1 and x2 - x1. In this case, y2 - y1 = 10 - 4 and x2 - x1 = 4 - 2. You would result in 6/2, which can be reduced to 3. Your slope is 3, so the first and second answer automatically are eliminated. Next, you could either draw it out on a coordinate plane or just visualize it. The starting point that goes through each line would be -2, which means D, or y = 3x - 2, is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Answer:
6.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a picture of an equilateral triangle. Cut the triangle in half, so that you get two 30-60-90 triangles. The area of these smaller triangles is 8 square inches.
The short leg of these triangles (the base) is half the side length: ½ s.
According to properties of 30-60-90 triangles, the long leg (the height) is √3 times the short leg: ½ s√3.
Area of a triangle is half the base times the height:
A = ½bh
8 = ½ (½ s) (½ s√3)
8 = ⅛ s²√3
64 = s²√3
s² = 64/√3
s = √(64/√3)
s ≈ 6.1
