Let x = the first consecutive number
Then x + 1 = the second consecutive number
Then x + 2 = the third consecutive number
Then x + 3 = the fourth consecutive number
Then x + 4 = the fifth consecutive number

The sum of the 5 consecutive integers is 265

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 265

Combine like terms.

5x + 10 = 265

Solve for x.

5x + 10 = 265
5x = 255 <-- Subtract 10 from each side
x = 51 <-- Divide both sides by 5

So, the fifth consecutive integer is 51 + 4 or 55.

Five consecutive integers are:

n, n+1, n+2, n+3, n+4  the sum of which is:

5n+10=265  subtract 10 from both sides

5n=255, divide both sides by 5

n=51

Our fifth number was n+4 so the fifth number is 55

A line has a slope of 2. It passes through the points (1, 2) and (3, y) . What is the value of y? y=
malfutka [58]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this , we use the equation of finding a slope wig a line.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

From the question, we know that:

y2 = y

x2 = 3

y1 = 2

x1 = 1

m = 2

Hence,

2= (y - 2)/(3 - 1)

2 = (y - 2)/2

4 = y - 2

y = 2 + 4 = 6
