The middle number of 3 consecutive whole numbers is 2a.

1 answer:

6 0

First number --- (2a-1)
middle number ---- (2a)
third number -----(2a+1)
2a-1+2a+2a+1=250
6a=250
a=250/6= 125/3
2a=2*(125/3)= 250/3 ---- is not a whole number that is contradicts to what is given, so sum cannot be 250
so

Hurry please!

Kryger [21]

Answer:

We have the equation of the line as : 4x+2y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Now 4x+2y=12

=> 2y = 12 - 4x

=> y = 6 - 2x

A line with a slope m and y-intercept c can be written as y = mx + c

In the case of y = -2x -...

When the temperature stays the same, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas. If a balloon is f

valkas [14]

Answer:

The new pressure of the gas is 42 pounds per square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the temperature remains constant, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas.

$V\propto \frac{1}{P}$

We can rewrite the above equation is

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{P_2}{P_1}$ [at constant temperature]

At a pressure of 14 pounds per square inches, a balloon is filled with 93 cubic inches of gas.

The volume of the gas is decreased to 31 cubic inches.

Here,

$V_1$ = 93 cubic inches, $P_1$ = 14 pounds per square inches,

$V_2$ =31 cubic inches, $P_2$ = ?

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{P_2}{P_1}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{93}{31}=\frac{P_2}{14}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{P_2}{14}=\frac{93}{31}$

$\Rightarrow {P_2}=\frac{93}{31}\times 14$

$\Rightarrow {P_2}=42$ pounds per square inches

The new pressure of the gas is 42 pounds per square inches.
