what is the smallest of three consecutive integers i the sum of the smaller two integers is two more than seven times the larges

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The numbers that meet these conditions are -3, -2 and -1.

This means that the wording of the question is somewhat ambiguous:

The lowest of the three numbers is -3.

The smallest however is -1.

You may need clarification on which of those is being asked for.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call those numbers a, b and c, with a the smallest and c the largest. We're told two key things here:

1) The sum of the smaller two integers is two more than seven times the largest integer. In other words a + b = 7c + 2

2) We're looking for three consecutive integers, which means that we can define them with a single variable. If the smallest one is a, then the others are a + 1 and a + 2.

We can take those and put them together, giving us the equation:

a + (a + 1) = 7(a + 2) + 2

Which we can then solve for a:

a + (a + 1) = 7(a + 2) + 2

2a + 1 = 7a + 14 + 2

2a - 7a = 14 + 2 - 1

-5a = 15

a = -3

Since a is -3 and also the smallest, we can then say that the numbers are -3, -2 and -1.

Please Someone I need Help With 1-8

5) k/35=3/7 : cross multiply
35*3=7k : simplify
105=7k : divide both sides of the equation by 7
k=15

6) 3/t=18/24 :cross multiply
18t=24*3 :simplify
18t=72 : divide both sides of the equation by 18
t=4

7) 10/8.4 = 5/m :cross multiply
10m=5 * 8.4 :simplify
10m=42 :divide both sides by 10
m=4.2

Built in 2005 the worlds largest leather work boots is 16 feet tall a typical men’s work boot is 1/2 foot tall how many times as

Yanka [14]

Answer: 32 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that:

- The height of a largest leather work boot is 16 feet.

- The height of a typical men’s work bootsis 1/2 foot or 0.5 feet.

Therefore, to calculate how many times as tall as a typical work boot is the largest boot, you must divide the height of a largest leather work boots by the height of a typical men’s work boots.

Then, you obtain:

$\frac{16ft}{0.5ft}=32$

Therefore, the answer is: 32 times.
