"The sum of their ages is 48" means x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 48 

<span>x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 48 </span>

<span>x + x + x + 1 + 2 = 48 </span>

<span>3x + 3 = 48 </span>

<span>3x = 48 - 3 </span>

<span>3x = 45 </span>

<span>x = 45/3 = 15 </span>

<span>So if the youngest is 15 (x = 15), then the oldest is x + 2 or 15 + 2 = 17</span>

Answer:

+7 or 7

Step-by-step explanation:

an integer is a whole number. So the question asks what whole number represent this real world situation. A positive charge to an atom can not be represent by a negative number (number below zero). Therefore, it has to be positive.

What is this please help I need this completed

Answer:

angles 3 and 4 both equal a 90 degree angle or bisect a 90 degree angle.

angle 5 is 44-degrees because it is complementary or vertical to the 44 degree angle.

x=32 because it is on the same line as the 44-degree angle and a line is 180 so 180-44=136 and to get the rest of x you would do the equation backwards so 136 divided by 4 is 34 and 36-2=32

angle a is 136 described above.

angle b, because it is on the same line as the 46 degree angle is 180-46=134

now im pooped :(
