Step One: Find 25% of 48.
Step Two: Subtract that number from 48.
48 * 0.25 = 12
48 - 12 = 36
36 cookies
The weight of the candles is 3/5 greater than of the watermelon, or 60\%, or 0.6.
Start finding the slope of the line
using one of the points find the intercept and the standard form
the equation of the line is
Umm sorry i do not know that answer I am just getting the points for again so so so sorry ;(
X= first integer
x+1= second consecutive integer
Product means multiply, so we'll multiply x by x+1. More than means to add and 3 times is multiplication.
x(x + 1)= 3x + 24
use distributive property to multiply x by everything in parentheses
(x*x) + (x*1)= 3x + 24
x^2 + x= 3x + 24
subtract 3x from both sides
x^2 - 2x= 24
subtract 24 from both sides
x^2 - 2x - 24= 0
factor the expression
(x-6)(x+4)= 0
x-6=0
x=6
x+4=0
x=-4
If x= 6 is the first integer, x+1= 7 is the second integer
If x= -4 is the first integer, x+1= -3 is the second integer
Hope this helps! :)
