Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
x=12 and y=3
x=4 and y =1
x=28 and y=7
If you are rounding to the nearest tenth then yes
Since there are 20 students on the field trip. Then 20 is the 100% total. Thus, to find how many people love the museum, we can simply multiply the total number of people by the percentage of interest, namely 40%
20*0.4 = 8
So, 8 people love the museum.
Let one integer be x, the consecutive odd integer is x+2
reciprocals are 1/x and 1/(x+2)
1/x +1/(x+2)=24/143
make the denominators the same:
(x+2)/[x(x+2)] +x/[x(x+2)]=24/143
143(2x+2)=24(x)(x+2)
286x+286=24x²+48x
24x²-238x-286=0
use the quadratic formula: x=22 this doesn't work because 22 is not an odd number.
or x=-2.1666666666 (this is not an integer)
weird.
Answer:
-7, -8 , -9 and -10 are such four integers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first integer = k
So, the next three consecutive integers are ( k+1), ((k + 1) + 1) and (((k + 1) + 1) +1)
or, k , (k +1), (k +2) and (k +3) are four consecutive integers.
Now, their sum is -34.
⇒k + (k +1) + (k +2) + (k +3) = -34
or, 4k + 6 = -34
or, 4k = - 34 - 6 = -40
⇒ k = -40/ 4 = -10
Hence, the first integer k = -10
The next integer = k + 1 = -10 + 1 = -9
Similarly next two integers are -8 and - 7.
So -7, -8 , -9 and -10 are such four integers.
