Answer:

lost 150

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                               X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                    1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                      100 .      =   100

Answer:

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                                X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                     1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                       100 .      =   100

1/2 * 200 = 100 -> Dante lost 100 pennies

1/3 * 150 = 50 -> Mia lost 50 pennies

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

What are three consecutive integers whoose sum of 138? Write and solve an equation with one variable.
Masteriza [31]
Consecutive integers are 1 more than the other.

If one of them is x.

The three would be x, x + 1, x + 2

Since the sum are 138

x + (x + 1) + (x +2) = 138

x + x + 1 + x +2 = 138

x + x + x + 1 + 2 = 138

3x + 3 = 138

3x = 138 - 3

3x = 135

x = 135/3

x = 47.

So the numbers are, x, x + 1, x + 2, = 47,  47 + 1 = 48, 47 + 2 = 49

The integers are 47, 48, and 49.
