4 shelves of consecutive even numbers
x , x + 2, x + 4, x + 6

5 ft = 60 inches

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 60....combine like terms
4x + 12 = 60
4x = 60 - 12
4x = 48
x = 48/4
x = 12 <==== one 12 inches

x + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14 <== one is 14 inches
x + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16 <== one is 16 inches
x + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 <== one is 18 inches

Ede4ka [16]
Since we are looking for the principal amount, then all we have to do is reverse the process of getting the amount of tax. In order to get the principal, you just have to divide 22 with 0.05. The answer is 440 so that is the principal amount you are looking for.

A light bulb consumes 960 watt hours per day how long does it take to consume 4320 watt hours
VARVARA [1.3K]

Since we need to determine how long it takes for the watt hours to consume 4320 watt hours, we would need to divide.

We would simply divide.

4320/950= 4.5

The 4.5 represents how long it would take for the light bulb to consume 4320 watt hours.

Therefore, the answer would be 4.5 days.

4.5 days

2. We then divided 4320/960= 4.5

3. We came to the conclusion that 4.5 days would be the answer.
