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

Mathematics
1 answer:
xeze [42]3 years ago
8 0
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.

Solve using the elimination method:<br> X-3y=7<br> 3x + 3y=9
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

                        x=4\\\\y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

x-3y=7      Equation:1

3x + 3y=9     Equation:2

Dividing Equation:2 by '3' both the sides:

x+y=3      

or   x=3-y     Equation:3

Putting the vale of 'x' in Equation:1

                             x-3y=7

                          (3-y)-3y=7\\\\3-y-3y=7\\\\3-4y=7\\\\

Subtracting '3' both sides

                             -4y=7-3\\\\-4y=4

                                 y=\frac{4}{-4}

                                 y=-1

Putting value of 'y' in Equation:3

                                x=3-y

                                x=3-(-1)\\\\x=3+1\\\\x=4

The solution of the equations is :

                              x=4\\\\y=-1
