Answer:
-58, -57, -56
Step-by-step explanation:
if the first integer is x,
the second integer must be x + 1 (because it's consecutive)
and the third must be x + 2
Therefore:
3 times the sum of the first and third integers is -342:
3 * (x + (x+2) ) = -342
Combine like terms in parentheses
3 * (2x + 2) = -342
Distribute the 3 to the 2x and the 2:
6x + 6 = -342
Subtract 6 on both sides
6x = -348
Divide by 6 on both sides
x = -58
x + 1 = -57
x + 2 = -56
-58, -57, -56
Check:
3 * (-58 + -56) = 3 * -114 = -342
Answer:
y=− x^2 /4-4

Answer:
<h2>
Emily: 72 marbles</h2><h2>
Asif: 8 marbles</h2>
<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>
first lets find in how many shares is the total amount of marbles divided into:
7+1=8
now, lets find how many marbles are in each share:
64/8=8
now that we know that each share of marbles contains 8 marbles, we can find how many each child got:
Emily got 7 shares: 8*7= 72 marbles
Asif got 1 share: 8*1= 8 marbles
Hence,
<h3><em>Emily got 72 marbles, while Asif got 8 marbles</em></h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
When x = -1
Substitute x = -1 into y = 2x
y = 2(-1)
y = -2
( -1, -2)
When x = 3
Substitute x = 3 into y = 2x
y = 2(3)
y = 6
( 3, 6)
