Answer:
should look like this on a graph.
The dotted line is the boundery line.
We can start this problem by finding out what the lowest consecutive number's value is (x). Since consecutive numbers are numbers that are 1 apart from each other, the sum of 9 consecutive numbers would look like
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) + (x+5) + (x+6) + (x+7) + (x+8)
Since we know that they equal 153,
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) + (x+5) + (x+6) + (x+7) + (x+8) = 153
Now we combine like terms
9x + 36 = 153
Simplify
9x = 117
x = 13
Now, we need to find what the 5th consecutive number is equal to. The fifth consecutive number is (x+4), so 13 + 4 is 17, meaning that the 5th of 9 consecutive numbers that add up to 153 is 17.
Answer: Mason has 150 buttons.
Step-by-step explanation: Brandon has 25 buttons. If Mason has 6 times as many, all you have to do is multiply 25 times 6. You end up with 150 buttons.
Answer:
24 is correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
hope it helped you:)
Make sure you substitute x for 3
The equation would be:
5-3<8
Subtract 3
2<8
The statement is true
