SOLVING:
X + (X + 1) + (X + 2) + (X + 3) + (X + 4) = - 75
X + X + 1 + X + 2 + X + 3 + X + 4 = - 75
5X + 10 = - 75
5X = - 75 - 10
5X = - 85
X =
\frac{ \textbf{-85}}{ \textbf{5}}
X = - 17  ===> The first number.

- 17 + 1 = - 16  ===> The second number.
- 17 + 2 = - 15  ===> The third number.
- 17 + 3 = - 14  ===> The fourth number.
- 17 + 4 = - 13  ===> The fifth number.

TESTING:

-17-16-15-14-13=-75\\ \\\boxed{-75}=\boxed{-75}\quad\checkmark\ Correct.
GOOD LUCK...!!

Hello! I can help you with this! Do -75/5 to get -15. -15 will be your middle number. So for consecutive integers, -13 + -14 + -15 + -16 + -17 = 75. Those are five consecutive integers that have a sum of 75. The lowest of 5 integers is -17, because it’s the smallest of them all and the furthest to the left of the number line. A line further to the left of the number line means it’s smaller. Therefore, the rest of the five integers is -17.

I need help on 5-7. Its a little confusing for me
Len [333]

Answer:

5. x = 5, y = 3

6. x = 0, y = 4

7. x = -1, y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5. substitute 3(value of y) into the equation y = x - 2:

=> 3 = x - 2

=> x = 5

6. substitute 0(value of x) into the equation y = x + 4:

=> y = 0 + 4

=> y = 4

7. substitute 1(value of y) into the equation y = 2x + 3:

=> 1 = 2x + 3

=> 2x = -2

=> x = -1

What is the answer to (6+4)tothe3power-1tothe8power
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Hey there!

\huge\boxed{(6 + 4)^3 - 1^8}

\huge\boxed{= 10^3 - 1^8}

\huge\boxed{10^3}

\huge\boxed{= 10\times10\times10}

\huge\boxed{= 100\times10 }

\huge\boxed{= 1,000}

\huge\boxed{1^{8}}

\huge\boxed{= 1\times1\times1 \times 1 \times 1 \times 1 \times 1 \times 1}

\huge\boxed{= 1 \times 1 \times 1 \times 1}

\huge\boxed{= 1\times1}

\huge\boxed{= 1}

\huge\boxed{1,000 - 1}

\huge\boxed{= 999}

\huge\text{Answer: \textsf{999}}
