We can start this problem by finding out what the lowest consecutive number's value is (x). Since consecutive numbers are numbers that are 1 apart from each other, the sum of 9 consecutive numbers would look like
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) + (x+5) + (x+6) + (x+7) + (x+8)
Since we know that they equal 153,
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) + (x+5) + (x+6) + (x+7) + (x+8) = 153
Now we combine like terms
9x + 36 = 153
Simplify
9x = 117
x = 13
Now, we need to find what the 5th consecutive number is equal to. The fifth consecutive number is (x+4), so 13 + 4 is 17, meaning that the 5th of 9 consecutive numbers that add up to 153 is 17.
[B] The ratios in Table B are greater than the ratios in Table A.

Answer:
The speed in still water is 5 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
distance with current = 90 miles
distance against current = 10 miles
speed in still water = s
speed of current = 4 mph
speed with current = s + 4
speed against current = s - 4
time = t
speed = distance/time
distance = speed * time
With current:
90 = (s + 4) * t
Against the current:
10 = (s - 4) * t
We have a system of equations:
90 = (s + 4) * t
10 = (s - 4) * t
90 = ts + 4t
10 = ts - 4t
Subtract the second equation from the first equation.
80 = 8t
10 = t
t = 10
10 = t(s - 4)
10 = 10(s - 4)
1 = s - 4
s = 5
Answer: The speed in still water is 5 miles per hour.
Answer:
Y= 3.2b + 100
Step-by-step explanation:
That is the equation needed to find the value of b. since Omar bought the cup at the fixed price of 100 we know that no matter what the answer has to be over 100. So that becomes our Y intercept. 3.2 percent is how much the price inflates every year.
