I believe that the answer would be 45
Answer:
(1)
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 2 = - 5 Add 1 to each side
x = - 5 + 2
x = - 3
Now go to the next part
(x - 2)^2
(-3 - 2)^2
(- 5)^2
Now it's a good idea at this point to separate the squared. It means that two numbers that are the same are to be multiplied together.
(-5)(-5) Two minuses are going to give you a plus.
5 * 5 = 25
(-5) * (-5) also give you 25
The answer is (1)
Answer:
17, 18, 19, 20
Explanation:
Let the numbers be x, x + 1, x + 2, x + 3
Their sum is equals to 74
x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 74 (group the variables)
x + x + x + x + 1 + 2 + 3 = 74 (simplify)
4(x) + 6 = 74 (subtract both sides by 6)
4x = 68 (divide both sides by 4)
x = 17
Other numbers:
x + 1 = 17 + 1 = 18
x + 2 = 17 + 2 = 19
x + 3 = 17 + 3 = 20
