Zak buys 6 gallons of fruit punch. He has
sesenic [268]
$8.70 is the total cost without the coupons. He gets 6 gallons. He gets $0.55 off per gallon.

To find the total price Zak got off, multiply 6 and $0.55. 6 x $0.55 = $3.30, so he got $3.30 off.

To find the total price. Add the total cost without the coupons + the amount the coupons saved him.
$8.70 + $3.30 = $12

To find the price per one gallon, divide the total price / number of gallons

$12/6 = $2. The regular price is $2 a gallon

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll cal the first integer x and then the rest of them will be x + 1, x + 2, x + 3 and x + 4. We can write x + 5(x + 2) = 3(x + 1 + x + 3 + x + 4) - 41.

x + 5x + 10 = 3(3x + 8) - 41

6x + 10 = 9x + 24 - 41

6x + 10 = 9x - 17

3x = 27

x = 9

The numbers are 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.
