Answer:
The smaller number is 127
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets write the given problem in equation form
sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1 = n + n + 1 = 2n + 1
now we find twice of the sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1
2*(2n + 1) = 4n + 2
given that
twice the sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1 is 510
thus,
4n + 2 = 510
=> 4n = 510 -2 = 508
=> n = 508/4 = 127
Thus, the numbers are n = 127
n+1 = 127 + 1 = 128
the smaller number is 127
Answer:
A = 1500
3 years = $18,644.48
30 years = $132,032.78
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert all fractions to have the same denominator.
To convert, we must find the least common multiple of the two denominators of the fractions:
Multiples of 4: {4,8,12,16,20}
Multiples of 5: {5,10,15,20}
The least common multiple of 4 and 5 is 20.
Multiply the fractions by a number that will result in the denominator being 20:
The equation should now look like this:
Subtract both sides by 8/20 to get w by itself:
The value of w is 7/20.
