Oldest = 2x
Middle = x + 5
Youngest = x

2x + x + 5 + x = 57
combine like terms

4x + 5 = 57
subtract 5 from both sides

4x = 52
divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x = 13

Oldest = 2x = 2(13) = 26
Middle = x + 5 = 13 + 5 = 18
Youngest = x = 13

Factor –3y – 18 and choose the correct option.
den301095 [7]
<h3>Factor –3y – 18 is:  -3(y + 6)</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to factor -3y - 18

Use the distributive property,

a(b + c) = ab + bc

From given,

-3y - 18

Factor out the greatest common factor of 3 and 18

The factors of 3 are: 1, 3

The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

Then the greatest common factor is 3

Factot out 3 from given expression

-3y - 18 = 3( - y - 6)

Or else we can rewrite as,

-3y - 18 = -3(y + 6)

Thus the given expression is factored

An obtuse triangle has two angles 45 n 18 ,and a third unknown angle theta what's the value of the unknown angle​
zlopas [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

An obtuse triangle has two angles 45 and 18. The value of the unknown angle is 117^{\circ}

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that two angles of an obtuse triangle is 45 and 18.  

Third angle is θ  

We are asked to find the value of third unknown angle theta

According to <em>angle sum property of triangle</em>, sum of three angles of triangle is 180^{\circ}

This means in our case sum of 45, 18 and θ should be 180^{\circ}

\begin{array}{l}{=>45+18+\theta=180} \\ {=>\theta=180-63=117^{\circ}}\end{array}

Hence value of unknown third angle of an obtuse triangle is 117^{\circ}

Teri has $6 less than does her sister, Jennie, who has x dollars. Teri
elixir [45]

The expression for the amount of money, in dollars, Teri has is x-2.

Since Jennie has x dollars while Teri has $6 less than does Jennie, this means that Teri will have: x - 6

Since Teri does not spend any money and earns $4, the the total amount that Teri has will be:

= x - 6 + 4

= x - 2

Therefore, Teri has x-2.
