Answer:
The answer is 61.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the numbers are: x, (x+2), (x+4)
Now, x+x+2+x+4 = 183
3x + 6 = 183
3x = 177
x = 59
So, second number would be: (x+2) = (59+2) = 61
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age be xy or 10x + y.
Reverse the two digits of my age, divide by three, add 20, and the result is my age, convert this to equation:
- (10y + x)/3 + 20 = 10x + y
- (10y + x)/3 = 10x + y - 20
- 10y + x = 3(10x + y - 20)
- 10y + x = 30x + 3y - 60
- 30x - x + 3y - 10y = 60
- 29x - 7y = 60
We should consider both x and y are between 1 and 9 since both the age and its reverse are 2-digit numbers.
Possible options for x are:
- 29x ≥ 7*1 + 60 = 67 ⇒ x > 2, at minimum value of y,
and
- 29x ≤ 7*9 + 60 = 123 ⇒ x < 5, at maximum value of y.
So x can be 3 or 4.
<h3>If x = 3</h3>
- 29*3 - 7y = 60
- 87 - 7y = 60
- 7y = 27
- y = 27/7, discarded as fraction.
<h3>If x = 4</h3>
- 29*4 - 7y = 60
- 116 - 7y = 60
- 7y = 56
- y = 8
So the age is 48.
There is a way to work it out with a pencil and paper, but that's too complicated
to try and explain with only text, like we have here.
I don't usually recommend this for things that can be done easily on paper ...
but for square roots, your best bet is to use a calculator.
The square root of 30 does not come out even. It starts out 5.477225...
and it keeps going and never ends.
The negative of 5.477225... is also a square root of 30. Every number has
two square roots ... the positive and negative of the same number.
Yes your answer is correct
Answer:
We have the equation of the line as : 4x+2y=12
Step-by-step explanation:
Now 4x+2y=12
=> 2y = 12 - 4x
=> y = 6 - 2x
A line with a slope m and y-intercept c can be written as y = mx + c
In the case of y = -2x -...
