Two times the least of three consecutive odd integers exceeds three times the greatest by 15

Mathematics

Mariana [72]3 years ago

Three consecutive odd integers would be x, x+2, and x+4 assuming x is an odd integer. The smallest of these is x. Two times x is 2x. The greatest integer is x+4. Three times this is 3 (x+4), and if you distribute you get 3x+12. If 2x exceeds this by 15, you would make it 3x+12-15. If you add the like terms, 12+(-15) is -3. So, you have 2x=3x-3. Subtract 3x from both sides. 2x-3x is -1x, or -x. Now we have -x=-3. Divide by -, or -1 on both sides. Now we have x=3. You can substitute x for 3 for any of the consecutive odd integers to find their value.

Answer:

C) The cost increases $2.50 for every additional pair of shoes rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice a pattern. When you buy a new pair of shoes, the total gets increased by $2.50 depending on how many pairs of shoes you buy. For example, starting with 1 pair of shoes, it costs $2.50, but when you buy another pair, the cost is $2.50+$2.50=2*$2.50=$5.00, and so on...

Therefore, the correct choice is C

fenix001 [56]
The correct answer is:  " 784 in² " . 
_________________________________________
                  {or; write as:  " 784 sq. inches " .}.
_________________________________________
      When the side is doubled (in this case, 4 is doubled; 4 * 2 = 8} ; the area is increased by 2² times; that is, by 4 times;  so, the area is:
    (196 sq. in)  * 4 =   784 sq inches .

Answer: 19 ft


Step-by-step explanation: To find the width, multiply the length that you have been given by 2, and subtract the result from the perimeter. You now have the total length for the remaining 2 sides. This number divided by 2 is the width. Hope this helps :)
