2000 Pounds in a ton. 1.5 is 1 and a half. 2000/2 = 1000. 2000 + 1000 = 3000. 1.5 tons = 3k pounds. You reduce the weight of the car by 300 pounds. 3000 - 300 = 2700.
Your car weighs 2,700 pounds.
2,700 pounds is also equal to 1.35 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
Easy way
-21÷3=-7 which is the exact center so
-6, -7, -8
Equation
x + (x+1) + (x+2) = -21
3x + 3 = -21
3x=-24
x=-8
x+1=-7
x+2=-6
2. Consecutive Odd Integers
X, X+2, X+4
X + (X+2) + (X+4) = 144
3X+6=144
3X=144-6=138
X = 138/3 = 46 .....There are no 3 odd Integers that can equal an even integer
3. 3 consecutive even number x, x+2, x+4
X + (X+2) + (X+4) = 48
3X+6=48
3X=48-6=42
X=42/3=14
14, 16, 18
Since the ratio of sides is 4 to 3, the proportion is:
x =
9
