5.5 + 2.1x + 3.8x - 4.1

5.5-4.1 +x(2.1+3.8)

1.4 +x(5.9)

5.9x+1.4

these are equivalent if there is a plus sign between  1.4 5.9x

<u><em>Answer: This statements are TRUE!</em></u>

<u><em>=5.9x+1.4 and 1.4+5.9x </em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

add similar elements

2.1x+3.8x=5.9x

5.5+5.9x-4.1

5.9-4.1+5.5  ← (group like terms)

add/subtract numbers

-4.1+5.5=1.4

=5.9x+1.4 are true equivalent.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

If the first of three consecutive integers is subtracted from 138, the result is the sum of the second and third. What are the i
otez555 [7]

Answer:

First Integer = n = 45

Second Integer = n+1 = 45 + 1 = 46

And Third Integer = n+ 2 = 45 +2 = 47

Step-by-step explanation:

Let First integer = n

Second Integer = n+1

Third Integer = n+2

According to the question given (If the first of three consecutive integers is subtracted from 138, the result is the sum of the second and third) the equation will be:

138 - n = (n+1) + (n+2)

Solving the equation:

138 - n = n+1+n+2

138 - n = 2n+3

138 - 3 =2n +n

135 = 3n

135/3 = n

=> n= 45

So, First Integer = n = 45

Second Integer = n+1 = 45 + 1 = 46

And Third Integer = n+ 2 = 45 +2 = 47
