If n is the first integer, then n+2 is the second one. The equation for the sum can be written as
  n + (n+2) = 24 . . . . . . this equation can be used to solve the problem

  2n = 22 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 2
  n = 11

The integers are 11 and 13.

_____
I like to solve problems like this by looking at the average of the integers. Here, it is 24/2 = 12. The consecutive odd integers whose average is 12 are 11 and 13.

Answer:

(32/15, -2/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) ³/₂x   -    2y =  4

(2)   x  +    ⅓y =  2

(3)  3x   -     4y =  8              Multiplied (1) by 2

(4)  3x  +       y =  6              Multiplied (2) by 3

                  5y = -2              Subtracted (3) from (4)

(5)                 y = -⅖             Divided each side by 5

       x + ⅓(-⅖) =  2              Substituted (5) into (2)

       x  -  ²/₁₅    =  2

       x              =  2 + ²/₁₅     Added ²/₁₅ to each side

      x              = 32/15

The system of equations has only one solution: (32/15, -2/5).

Which of the following rational numbers is equal to 3.4? (line above the four)
Travka [436]
Hey there! :D

So, we can just divide all the numbers to figure it out. 

31/9= 3.44444444

32/9=3.5555556

33/9= 3.66666777

34/9= 3.777778

The closest number to 3.4 is 31/9. "A" is the correct answer. 

I hope this helps!
