The correct option is B): "<span>Let x = 1st integer. Let x + 2 = 2nd integer.</span><span>"
Given that "The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 28."
Now the difference between two odd numbers is 2.
So this means that one odd number has to be greater than the other by 2.
Let the smaller number be 'X' therefore the bigger number will be 'x+2'
thus
x + (x+2) = 28
therefore,
x + x + 2 = 28
now we subtract "2" from both the sides
therefore,
2x = 26
now dividing throughout by 2 we get:
x = 13
therefore,
x + 2 = 13+2
= 15
therefore, the numbers are
13 AND 15</span>
The distance between the points (d) is found using the Pythagorean theorem.
Imagine the two points as defining the hypotenuse of a right triangle. The lengths of the legs of the triangle are the horizontal distance between the points and the vertical distance between the points. The the theorem tells us
d² = 4² + 7²
d² = 16 + 49
d² = 65
d = √65 ≈ 8.1
The distance between the points is
C 8.1_____
You know that the distance must be longer than the longest leg (7) and must be shorter than the sum of the two legs (4+7=11). The only answer choice between 7 and 11 is 8.1.
Answer:
4 + x =5
Step-by-step explanation:
By adding a variable you can set up an addition sentence
The sum is 41.22 because first you turn all of the fractions into decimals and then it’s easier to add them all together all at once.
