Consecutive even integers are 2 apart
they are
x,x+2,x+4
total sum is 60
x+x+2+x+4=60
3x+6=60
minus 6 both sides
3x=54
divide both sides by 3
x=18
x+2=20
x+4=22
the ages are
18,20,22
Answer:
v= 13
w= -32
Step-by-step explanation:
2v+6w=-36
5v+2w=1
2w= 1-5v
2v+ (3)(1-5v)= -36
2v+3-15v= -36
3-13v =-36
3--36= 13v
39= 13v
13 = V
5×13+2w=1
65+2w=1
1-65= 2w
-64=2w
-32=w
First you can change 3 to 10/10 so that they can have the same denominator. Now, since you do that the number is now 2.
Now, do 10/10-1/10=9/10.
After do 2-4=-2.
So, your final answer is -2 9/10.
