The desired answer is probably that
2x + 1 = 67
is the equation that can be used to solve the problem. In this case, x represents the smallest integer.
_____
I like to work problems in consecutive integers by considering their average. Here, it is 67/2 = 33.5. The two consecutive integers whose average is 33.5 are 33 and 34, the solution to the problem. For this, the first equation applies, where x is the value halfway between the two integers. (This answer (2x=67) would likely get marked wrong by your computer grading system.)
Answer:
x^2-2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by using FOIL
First, Outside, Inside, Last
Multiply the x with the x to get x^2
Then x times -1 for the outside numbers to get -x
Then -1 times x for the inside numbers to get -x
And finally -1 and -1 for the last numbers to get 1
Add the two -x to get -2x.
Put it all together
x^2-2x+1
Using Pathogorean Theorem.....
40 = the square root of 24^2 + 32^2
40 = the square root of 576 + 1024
40 = the square root of 1600
40 = 40
Answer:
15 bundles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
The least number of bundles that could be sold
To do this, we simply calculate the LCM of the given number of bundles.
For 3, we have:
For 5, we have:
<em>The least common factor between both is: 15. Hence, the least number of bundles is 15</em>
