If <em>x</em> is the smallest of the three, then the next two integers are <em>x</em> + 2 and <em>x</em> + 4.
"Twice the largest is 20 less than the sum of all three" translates to
2 (<em>x</em> + 4) = (<em>x</em> + (<em>x</em> + 4) + (<em>x</em> + 6)) - 20
Solve for <em>x</em> :
2<em>x</em> + 8 = 3<em>x</em> - 10
<em>x</em> = 18
Then the three numbers are {18, 20, 22}.
Most of these problems are the commutative property:
Addition
a + b = b + a
Multiplication
a * b = b * a
and the associative property:
Addition
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
Multiplication
(a * b) * c = a * (b * c)
There's also the Identity property:
Addition \ Subtraction:
a + 0 = a \ a - 0 = a
Multiplication \ Division:
a * 1 = a \ a / 1 = a
Answer:
$128.40
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the total cost of the pizza before tax.
15 × 8 = 120
Set up a proportion to find the tax.
7/100 = x/120
Cross multiply
840 = 100x
Divide both sides by 100
Tax = $8.40
$120 + $8.40 = $128.40
