Answer:

\boxed{\sf 27 \ and \ 29}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first consecutive odd integer be \sf x.

Let the second consecutive odd integer be \sf x+2.

The sum of the two numbers is 56.

\sf x+x+2=56

\sf 2x+2=56

\sf 2x=54

\sf x=27

Put x as 27 for the second consecutive odd integer.

\sf 27+2=29

The two numbers are 27 and 29.

Two boys decided to buy a computer. The second boy had 5/6 of the money the first had. The first boy had 7/8 of the price of the
UNO [17]

Answer:

The price of the computer is $1,152

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the computer be $x

The first boy boy had 7/8 of this amount, the amount he has is thus 7/8 × $x = 7x/8

The second boy had 5/6 of what the first boy had. The amount of money he has is thus 5/6 × 7x/8 = 35x/48

Now, the addition of what they have is $696 more than what they need to pay. This amount is x+ 696

Mathematically, this can be represented as;

7x/8 + 35x/48 = x + 696

(42x + 35x)/48 = (x + 696)

77x/48 = (x + 696)

77x = 48(x + 696)

77x = 48x + 33408

77x - 48x = 33408

29x = 33, 408

x = 33,408/29

x = $1,152

What is 3/5(15k+10)=12k-9 in steps
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
<em>multiply both sides by 5  </em>        3(15k+10)=5(12k-9)     
<em>get rid of the brackets</em>             45k+30=60k-45
<em>take away 45k to both sides</em>    30=15k-45
<em>plus 45 to both sides</em>               75=15k
<em>divide both by 15</em>                     k=5

Doss [256]

The reflection of BC over I is shown below.

<h3>What is reflection?</h3>
  • A reflection is a mapping from a Euclidean space to itself that is an isometry with a hyperplane as a set of fixed points; this set is known as the reflection's axis (in dimension 2) or plane (in dimension 3).
  • A figure's mirror image in the axis or plane of reflection is its image by reflection.

See the attached figure for a better explanation:

1. By the unique line postulate, you can draw only one line segment: BC

  • Since only one line can be drawn between two distinct points.

2. Using the definition of reflection, reflect BC over l.

  • To find the line segment which reflects BC over l, we will use the definition of reflection.

3. By the definition of reflection, C is the image of itself and A is the image of B.

  • Definition of reflection says the figure about a line is transformed to form the mirror image.
  • Now, the CD is the perpendicular bisector of AB so A and B are equidistant from D forming a mirror image of each other.

4. Since reflections preserve length, AC = BC

  • In Reflection the figure is transformed to form a mirror image.
  • Hence the length will be preserved in case of reflection.

Therefore, the reflection of BC over I is shown.
