Answer:

the equation is (n/3) - 2 = 17

the number is 57

Step-by-step explanation:

the parenthesis are just there to make sure you know that the denominator is not 3-2, the whole fraction/division problem is subtracted by two.

hope this helped a little bit :))

The sum of two consecutive integers is 345. What are the integers? need help with it
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

hi there ☺️

Here we will use algebra to find three consecutive integers whose sum is 345. We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 345. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 345

To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract three from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 345

3X + 3 = 345

3X + 3 - 3 = 345 - 3

3X = 342

3X/3 = 342/3

X = 114

Which means that the first number is 114, the second number is 114 + 1 and the third number is 114 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 345 are 114, 115, and 116.

114 + 115 + 116 = 345

We know our answer is correct because 114 + 115 + 116 equals 345 as displayed above.

What is the inverse of the function shown( in the form of a graph)
NemiM [27]

Answer:

y =  - 1x + b

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a slope is the exact opposite slope of the original. I'll show a function below where you can easily solve future problems if you need to.

-  \frac{1}{m} x

m is the slope, so for the equation above, you simply insert the original slope, being 1, in the equation.

-  \frac{1}{1} x \\  - 1x

So the inverse slope would be -1.

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

295.936

3 times a number xx, subtracted from 1818, is less than -90.?90. Write an inequality for the statement above. Find the solution
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The solution set is: x>36

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that we have to subtract 3 times of some number 'x' from 18 such that the resulting equation is less than -90.

this means that : 18-3x<-90

on solving the inequality by adding 3x on both side and adding 90 on both side we get that

 108<3x

now on dividing both side by 3 we get that

x>36

Hence our solution set is: x>36
