If y=x-1, you can substitute y for x-1.

x + y = 3
x + (x-1) = 3
2x - 1 = 3
2x = 4
x = 2
Now substitute x for 2 to find y

y = x - 1
y = 2 - 1
y = 1

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 207. What are the​ integers?
nikdorinn [45]
Hey!

It says that it is the sum of 3 consecutive odd integers right?

So then we give these numbers some variables to work with like so...

x = 1st number
x + 2 = 2nd number
x + 4 = 3rd number

now set all of them equal to 207

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 207
3x + 6 = 207
3x = 201
<u>x = 67</u><u />                     <u>x + 2 = 69</u><u />              <u /><u />   <u>x + 4 = 71
</u>
<u>

Each of the answers given at the right talks about the fourth month. So let's compare each of the fourth month's profits.


When the month t = 4 in Company B, the company made 10 hundred (or 1000) dollars in profits.


When the month t = 4 in Company A, we evaluate the function at t = 4. To do that we put t = 4 into the function.


P(4) = 1.8(1.4)⁴


P(4) = 6.91488


Thus the company made 691.488 dollars of profit. So during the 4th month, Company B made more than A.


Each of the answers also talks about year end profits, which would be after 12 months. The function for company B is linear whereas it is exponential for A. An exponential function will grow faster in A and have higher maximum values. We can conclude that year end profits for A will be higher.


We put the statements together - that B makes in the 4th month but at year's end A will make more.


Thus, the third box is the best answer.

-29 + 5× = -2× + 27 is equal to
Alborosie
First, add 2x on both sides. then add 29 on both sides. you want to remove the negatives when you're doing this. now you have 7x equals 56. now you divide 7 on both sides. you want to do this because your isolating the variable. now to get x equals 8.
