C) Victoria has y dollars. This amount is 12 times x, the amount of money in dollars Victoria’s brother has.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

The equation is represented as y = 12x

  • The option A) does not match the equation. since it is given that x is 12 times y (x = 12y).
  • The option B) does not match the equation since it is given that she recieves  $12 as change (x = y-12)
  • The option C) matches the equation since Victoria has 12 times the amount of his brother (y = 12x)
  • The option D) does not match the equation since Victoria is 12 years greater (y  = x+12)

20.   The sum of two consecutive even integers is 158. Find the least of the two integers. 
Mumz [18]

Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

The tricky part of this is figuring out how to assign the unknowns.  We are told that we are working with two consecutive even integers.  Consecutive means "next to" or "in order" and sum means to add.  If we use 2 and 4 as examples of our 2 consecutive even integers and assign x to 2, then in order to get from 2 to 4 we have to add 2.  So the lesser of the 2 integers is x, and the next one in order will be x + 2.  (2 and 4 are just used as examples; they mean nothing to the solving of this particular problem.  You could pick any 2 even consecutive integers and find the same rule applies.  All we are doing here with the example numbers is finding a rule for our integers.)  Now we have the 2 expressions for the integers, we will add them together and set the sum equal to 158:

x + (x + 2) = 158

The parenthesis are unnecessary since we are adding, so when we combine like terms we get

2x + 2 = 158 and

2x = 156 and

x = 78

That means that the lesser of the 2 integers in 78, and the next one in order would be 80, and 78 + 80 = 158

Find each missing lengths to the nearest tenth PLEASE HELP
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

For #1, 8.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

I can attempt to answer it, but I can't promise anything.

Alright, so, the equation for this should be A²+B²=C²

C is usually the longer side, which for you is the side that is missing.

Let's try the first one. If what I see is right, the 2 sides are 4 and 8. A is 8 and B is 4.

That means that the equation would be 8²+4²=C²

That would be 64+16=80

The equation is now 80= c²

The opposite of "to the power of 2" is a square root. So, now you're going to find the square root of 80, which is 8.9 to the nearest tenth.

So, for the first question, the answer should be 8.9

I hope this helps you solve the rest.
