We can say that x is the largest number.

So the sum is x + (x - 1) + (x - 2) + (x - 3) + (x - 4) = -5

Now solve for x:

x + x + x + x + x - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 = -5

5x - 10 = -5

5x = 5

x = 1

So the largest number is 1.

Check: 1 + 0 + -1 + -2 + -3   =   -2 + -3   =   -5 so 1 is correct.

If your car gets 24 miles per​ gallon, how much does it cost to drive 440 miles when gasoline costs ​$2.80 per​ gallon?
mojhsa [17]
This not might be correct (Cause in a middle schooler) but I think is....
440 divides by 24 = 18.3333333
We round it to the neared whole number which is 18.
18 x 2.80 = 50.4
So it is 50.4 altogether...
