Answer:
Me and my massive brain, among other massive things of mine, believe it to be -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between consecutive integers is 1.
The difference between consecutive odd integers is 2.
Let the smallest odd integer be x.
Then the next greater one is x + 2. The greatest one is x + 4.
"3 times the first" is 3x
"twice the third" is 2(x + 4)
"3 times the first of three consecutive odd integers is 3 more than twice the third"
3x = 2(x + 4) + 3
3x = 2x + 8 + 3
x = 11
The smallest integer is 11.
x + 4 = 11 + 4 = 15
The greatest one is 15.
X=number of pounds
y=cost of pound .
x+y=cost
Answer:
The inequality required to express the above condition is x ≥ 18.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Renata and her family go through an average of more than 15 cans of sparkling water each day.
The number of cases of 24 cans of sparkling water.
We can take the number of cases to be x.
Each case is said to cost $3.50.
An inequality for the number of cases that Renata's family go through in 24 days can be written as
x ≥
⇒ x ≥
⇒ x ≥ 18.75
Therefore the inequality required to express the above condition is
x ≥ 18.75
There are 650 toothpicks in a regular sized box.
That is the volume of the box = 650 toothpicks
Jumbo box is made by doubling all the dimensions.
We know volume = length * width * height = L*W*H
We double all the dimensions for Jumbo box
L becomes 2L
W become 2W
H becomes 2H
Volume of Jumbo box = 2L * 2W * 2H = 8*L*W*H
Volume of jumbo box = 8 * volume of small box
= 8 * 650= 5200
The Jumbo box holds 5200 toothpicks .
