Use a let statement
first
let x and x + 2 be the number so you write it like this
<u>let x = the first consecutive integer
</u><u>let x + 2 = the second consecutive integer
</u>
second
x(x+2)=323
x^2 + 2x = 323
-323 -323
x^2 + 2x -323 = 0
third
try to factor -323 so it is 19 and -17
(x + 19) (x - 17) = 0
x = 19
x = -17
hope this help
Let the amount Tom does = x
Then Larissa’s time would be 3x( 3 times the amount of Tom)
And Neal would also be 3x
The total of the 3 is 84 hours so as an equation you have:
X + 3x + 3x = 84
Combine like terms
7x = 84
Divide both sides by 7
X = 84/7
X = 12 hours
Tom = x, so Tom exercised for 12 hours.
<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>=60</h3><h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2><h3>=Solution:</h3><h3> (8+2) × (8-2)</h3><h3> =10×6</h3><h3> =60#</h3>
5 m/sec or 300m / min
using speed = 
change 5 min 20 sec to seconds = (5 × 60) + 20 = 320 sec
speed = 
= 5m / second or
speed = 60 × 5 = 300m / minute
Answer:
W=7
Step-by-step explanation:
-3W+27=6
Subtract 27 from both sides to isolate the variable.
-3W=-21
Divide by -3 to solve for W
w=7
