First, we can represent the numbers as n and n + 1 = 25

<h2>n + n + 1 = 25</h2><h2 /><h2>Next, we can combine like terms.</h2><h2 /><h2>2n + 1 = 25</h2><h2 /><h2>Subtract 2 from both sides.</h2><h2 /><h2>2n = 24</h2><h2 /><h2>2n ÷ 2 = n</h2><h2>24 ÷ 2 = 12</h2><h2 /><h2>If we know that 12 is n, n + 1 would be equal to 12 + 1 so the largest consecutive number is 13.</h2>

Assume the larger number is x
another number is x-1
their sum would be x+(x-1) which equals 25
x+(x-1)=25
2x=26
x=13
ans:13

YOU CAN EARN YOURSEL A BRAINLEST! (0.&lt;)
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:    

P(x) = 0.50x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of glasses sold

She charges $0.50 per glass, so her revenue is

R(x) = 0.50x

which is the amount of money she brings in

Her cost function is

C(x) = 5

assuming she only spends that $5.00 on the supplies mentioned.

The profit P(x) is the difference of revenue and cost

Profit = Revenue - Cost

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = 0.50x - 5

Which expression is less than 3? 3 x 4/4, 3 x 15/8, 3 x 4/9, 3 x 1 1/8
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

3 × 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that 4/4 is equal to 1, so 3 × 4/4 = 3

15 is bigger than 8, so we know that 15/8 is equal to 1 point something, you can find out the answer by a simple division, once you know the answer (1.875), you multiply it by 3, and get 5.625, this is larger than 3 so it is not the answer.

4 is smaller than 9, so we know that 4/9 is equal to 0 point something, again, we divide and get 0.444..., now we know that multypling something by 0 pint something is almost the same as dividing, so we can that this result is less than 3 (its 1.333).

1 and 1/8 is a mixed fraction so we know it is larger than 1, meaning that if we multiply it by 3, we will get a number larger than 3 (3.375)
