Hello there!
y + 15 < 3
Start by subtracting 15 on both sides
y + 15 - 15 < 3 - 15
y < -12
As always, it is my pleasure to help you guys on here. Let me know if you have any questions.
First remember that sum means to add. now think about the equation. we need to find 3 numbers that equal 159 when added together. And they are all consecutive odd numbers. so let's call the first number X. the second number would be X+2 since we have to jump over 1 even number. The third number would be X+4 since we have to jump over 2 even numbers. so now an equation to represent this would be X+(X+2)+(X+4)=159. Add like terms, and remember order of operations. if you need help getting the answers leave me a comment.
Answer:
The answer you have selected should be correct.
4.29 + 97.2 + 0.687 = 102.177
In adding decimal numbers, make sure that the decimal points are aligned. Since each number has different counts of numbers after the decimal point, use 0 to pad the missing places.
4.290
97.200
<u> 0.687
</u> 102.177
The count of numbers after the decimal point is the same count of number of the decimal who has the greatest count of number after the decimal point.
4.29 only has 2 counts of places after the decimal point
97.2 only has 1 count of place after the decimal point
0.687 has 3 counts of places after the decimal point.
The sum of the decimals must also have 3 counts of places after the decimal point.
