It is a! I did this assignment and got it right that’s how I know!
Answer:yea its 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Just color one intire grid and thirty five units on the other
When calculating consecutive integers, the smaller number is x and the larger number is (x + 1).
So the equation you can use is x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
This is because the sum of the consecutive integers are equal to 5 more than 3 times the larger integer.
Now simplify:
x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3x + 3
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Now isolate the variable:
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Subtract 2x from both sides:
1 = x + 8
Subtract 8 from both side:
-7 = x
x = -7
So the smaller number is -7 and the larger number is -6.
Now check your answer:
-7 + (-7 + 1) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 - 6 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-6)
-13 = 5 + (-18)
-13 = 5 - 18
-13 = -13
This works!
So the integers are -7 and -6.
Mammals: If the number of Mammal exhibits is 25 and there are 75 total exhibits, the Mammal exhibits are 1/3 of the total exhibits at this Zoo. The ratio for 1/3 is 1:3, which is 25:75 in most complex form. That's 33.3 as a percentage, or 33.3%.
Reptiles: If the number of Reptile exhibits is 15 and there are 75 total exhibits, the reptile exhibits are 1/5 of the total exhibits here. The ratio for 1/5 is 1:5, which is 15:75 fully written out. This as a percentage is 20%.
