(X)+(X+1)=24
"consecutive" means right after the other, so, if the first one is (X), the second integer <u>must be</u> (X+1). The answer 24 is given so you just have to solve the equation.
2X+1=24
2X=23
X=11.5
Answer:
The number is -100, Jill can think of something else, now.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = the number
x/4 - 20 = -45 {twenty less than one-fourth of the number is -45}
x/4 = -25 {added 20 to each side}
x = -100 {multiplied each side by 4}
6u+15=33
6u=33-15
6u=18
u=3
U = 3 Is the answer!!!
HOPE THIS HELP!! :D
(1,10)(-3,2)
slope = (2-10) / (-3-1) = -8/-4 = 2
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 2
(1,10)...x = 1 and y = 10
now we sub and solve for b, the y int
10 = 2(1) + b
10 = 2 + b
10 - 2 = b
8 = b
equation is : y = 2x + 8.....or 2x - y = -8
