Tried a whole bunch of odd sequences:

11 + 13 + 15 = 39
Nope too small.

21 + 23 + 25 = 69
Woah too big!

And after a few more trials found that:
17 + 19 + 21 = 51

Woohoo!

An odd number is ussualy written as "2k+1" and an even number is written as "2k".
Now, as there are 3 consecutive odd numbers that sum to 51, it can be written this way: 
(2k+1)+(2k+3)+(2k+5)=51
6k+9=51
6k=42
k=7 => The numbers are: 2*7+1=15
                                         2*7+3=17
                                          2*7+5=19
15+17+19=51

Option C: \frac{4}{5} is the slope of the line

Explanation:

The line passes through the points (3,-1) and (-2,-5)

We need to find the slope of the line.

The slope can be determined using the formula,

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Where the coordinates (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) are (3,-1) and (-2,-5)

Let us substitute the points in the formula

Thus, we have,

m=\frac{-5-(-1)}{-2-3}

Simplifying, we get,

m=\frac{-5+1}{-2-3}

Adding the numerator and denominator, we have,

m=\frac{-4}{-5}

Cancelling the negative terms, we get,

m=\frac{4}{5}

Thus, the slope of the line is m=\frac{4}{5}

Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.

440...marked down by 30% means u pay 70%
70% of 440 = 0.70(440) = 308

308 ..marked down by 10% means u pay 90%

Two types of memberships are available for a theme park:
sergiy2304 [10]

The equation 2v-41=0 can be used to find the number of visits that would make two memberships cost the same amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Per month charges of type 1 = $86

Per visit charge = $3

Let,

v be the number of visits.

T(v) = 3v+86    

Per month charges of type 2 = $45

Per visit charge = $5

P(v) = 5v+45

For same amount to be charged;

T(v) = P(v)

3v+86=5v+45\\86-45=5v-3v\\41=2v\\2v-41=0

The equation 2v-41=0 can be used to find the number of visits that would make two memberships cost the same amount.
