Answer:
55
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the middle integer. Then the smallest is x-2 and the largest is x+2. Your requirement is that ...
(x-2)/(x+2) > 2/3
3x -6 > 2x +4 . . . . cross multiply
x > 10 . . . . . . . . . . .add 6-2x
The smallest integer satisfying this requirement is x=11. The sum of the 5 integers is 5x = 55.
The smallest sum is 55.
Let the additional weight that can be added be = x
Current weight of the bag = 38 pounds
Total weight can be = 50 pounds
The equation becomes:
Hence, a weight of 12 pounds cab be added to the current wight.
Answer:
The answer is the third picture
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x=-1 y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
solve y in 3+2x-y=0
y=3+2x
sub y=3+2x into -3 -7y=10x
-14x- 24= 10x
solve x in -14x-24=10x
x= -1
sub x= -1 into y =3+2x
y=1
so therefore x= -1 and y=1
Answer:
1.67 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X= time it will take to pave 1 kilometer?
