The correct answer is 117

x + y = 236
y = x + 2
x + x + 2 = 236
2x = 236 - 2
2x = 234
x = 234/2
x = 117

y = 117 + 2
y =119

Both are odd integers and 117 is smaller.

the 43rd term of an arithmetic sequence is -671 and the 52nd term is -806. find the first term and the common difference.
Bond [772]

Answer:

First term = -41.

Common difference = -15.

Step-by-step explanation:

nth term: an = a1 + (n - 1)d  where a = first term and d = the common difference.

-671 = a1 + (43 - 1)d

-806 = a1 +(52 - 1)d

-671  = a1 + 42d

-806 = a1 + 51d

Subtracting ( to eliminate a1):

-671 - (-806) = 42d - 51d

-9d =  135

d = -15

Substitute for d in the first equation:

-671 = a1 + 42*-15

-671 = a1 - 630

a1 = -671 + 630 = -41.

How to solve this brainteaser
laila [671]

Answer:

last row equals 333

Step-by-step explanation:

The clock showing time 9:00 should be worth 9 points, and the clock showing 3:00 should be worth 3 points, giving for the first row:

9 + 9 + 3 = 21

the three equal calculators showing 1234 are worth 10 points each:

1+2+3+4 = 10

and 10 + 10 + 10 = 30

the light bulbs should be 15 points each then giving 15 + 15 - 15 = 130 - 15 = 15 Notice also that they all have 5 rays of light coming out (so a 3 points per ray)

Now for the bottom line we have:

9 + (1+2+2+4) times 3 * 12 (only four rays on each bulb thus 4 * 3 = 12)

Notice we added the figures that appear in the calculator.

9 + 9 * 36 = 333
