The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is one hundred fifty-nine

Mathematics

xeze [42]2 years ago

First remember that sum means to add. now think about the equation. we need to find 3 numbers that equal 159 when added together. And they are all consecutive odd numbers. so let's call the first number X. the second number would be X+2 since we have to jump over 1 even number. The third number would be X+4 since we have to jump over 2 even numbers. so now an equation to represent this would be X+(X+2)+(X+4)=159. Add like terms, and remember order of operations. if you need help getting the answers leave me a comment.

A kangaroo hops 2 kilometers in 3 minutes. At this rate, how far does the kangaroo travel in 2 minutes? *
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

At a speed of 2 km every 3 minutes, in 2 minutes the kangaroo would travel 1,333 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a kangaroo hops 2 kilometers in 3 minutes, to calculate how much distance this animal hops in 2 minutes, the following calculation should be performed:

2 km / 3 min = 0.666 km per minute (2/3 x 2)

0.666 km per minute x 2 minutes = 1.333 kilometers in 2 minutes (0.666 x 2)

Therefore, at a speed of 2 km every 3 minutes, in 2 minutes the kangaroo would hop 1,333 km.
