Answer: The number of gold medals are 6,7, and 8 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first three consecutive integers are

x, x+1, x+2

Sum = 21

According to question, we get that

x+x+1+x+2=21\\\\3x+3=21\\\\3x=21-3\\\\3x=18\\\\x=\dfrac{18}{3}\\\\x=6

Hence, the number of gold medals won by Korea = 6

Number of gold medals won by France = 7

Number of gold medals won by Italy = 8

Hence, the number of gold medals are 6,7, and 8 respectively.

The answer would be:

Korea: 6

Italy: 7

France: 8

6, 7, 8 are consecutive numbers because they go in the order that you would count from 1-x(an infinite number) with.

I hope this helped! If you have further questions don't be afraid to ask!

Write the equation with 6 for x

Vk + 2 - 6 = 0

Vk - 4 = 0

Add 4 to both sides

Vk = 4

Divide both sides by V

k = 4/V

iranda is conducting a poll to determine how many students would attend a students-only school dance if one was held. Which samp
Nastasia [14]

Answer: 20 names from each grade

Step-by-step explanation:

The two answers it comes down to are between every student from all of her classes and 20 students from each grade, however since the poll wants to determine how many people across the entire student body would attend, pulling from just Miranda's classes would add a grade level bias to the dance and would not be entirely random. 20 students from each grade is completely unbiased and properly represents the entire student body.

Bob wants to buy a TV that cost $500 plus 8% tax. He is getting a bonus of $45 and a birthday gift of $85 which he plans to use
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

He needs to work for 40 whole hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the amount a Tv will cost Bob in terms of the number of hours he needs to work.

Let’s look at the total cost he has to pay.

a. $500

b. 8% tax = 8/100 * 500 = $40

c. He is paying 2 bills of $35 each making a total of 2 * $35 = $70

The total amount he is to pay is thus; 500 + 40 + 70 = $610

Let’s look at his income ;

a. Bonus $45

b. Birthday gift $85

The total amount of money he has asides his salary to offset the bill is 45 + 85 = $130

The balance to pay from his salary would be $610 - $130 = $480

The number of hours he has to work since he earns $12 per hour would be 480/12 = 40 hours of work
