The desired answer is probably that
2x + 1 = 67
is the equation that can be used to solve the problem. In this case, x represents the smallest integer.
_____
I like to work problems in consecutive integers by considering their average. Here, it is 67/2 = 33.5. The two consecutive integers whose average is 33.5 are 33 and 34, the solution to the problem. For this, the first equation applies, where x is the value halfway between the two integers. (This answer (2x=67) would likely get marked wrong by your computer grading system.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A(7,1), B(5,-6)
(AB)² = (-6-1)² + (5-7)² = 53
AB = √53
Answer:
<em>3n; 2 nickels and 6 quarters</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
"Peggy had three times as many quarters as nickels."
Whatever number of nickels she has, the number of quarters is 3 times as many.
Since she has n nickels, she has 3 times n quarters.
The number of quarters is 3n.
A nickel is worth $0.05, so n nickels are worth 0.05n.
A quarter is worth $0.25, so 3n quarters are worth 0.25(3n).
0.05n + 0.25(3n) = 1.60
0.05n + 0.75n = 1.6
0.8n = 1.6
n = 2
She has 2 nickels.
3n = 3(2) = 6
She has 6 quarters.
The answer would be because you will be adding them anyway when multiplying
