45 = (x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2)
45 = 3x + 3
- 3
42 = 3x
/3
14 = x
45 = 14 + (14 + 1) + (14 + 2)
45 = 14 + 15 + 16
The ages of the 3 friends are 14, 15, and 16.
Answer:
7/5
Step-by-step explanation:
1 2/5, a mixed number, is equivalent to 7/5.
Change the x and y
Then solve for y
X= 8y+1
Subtract 1 from both sides
X-1=8y
Divide by 8
X-1 /8 = y
