The answer is 29

let n be the first of the consecutive odd numbers
⇒ n, n+2, n+4 n+6, n+5
represent 5 consecutive odd numbers
sum = n+ (n+2) + (n+4) + (n+6) + (n+8) = 5n+20
⇒ 5n +20=145
Solve for n = 25

25, 27, 29, 31, 33

25+27+29+31+33=145

Answer:

$Y=(\frac{4}{7}) x+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Y=mx+b$

$M=\frac{x2-x1}{y2-y1}$

$M=\frac{0-(-4)}{-10-3}$

$M=\frac{-4}{-7}$

$Y=(\frac{4}{7}) x+2$

6 - 2y + (-8y) + 5.1 = 0<br> (Simplify your answer. Use integers

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Simplified answer = 11.1 - 10y = 0

y = 1.11

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - 2y + (-8y) + 5.1 = 0

6 + 5.1 -2y -8y = 0

Add like terms

11.1 - 10y = 0

(This is simplified, but if you want to solve for y, continue)

11.1 - 10y = 0

÷10 ÷10

1.11 - y = 0

y = 1.11 because 1.11 - 1.11 is 0

Crickets can jump with a vertical velocity of up to 14 ft/s. Which equation models the height of such a jump, in feet, after t s

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

h = 147 - 16t^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the following equation of motion

h = ut + 1/2 gt^2 where h = height, u = initial velocity , g = acceleration due to gravity and t = the time.

So here we have:

h = 14t + 1/2 * -32 * t^2

h = 14t - 16t^2
