Find the largest of 3 consecutive odd integers that have a sum of -75

1 answer:

3 0

Odd integers are 2 apart

they are
x,x+2,x+4

sum is -75

x+x+2+x+4=-75
3x+6=-75
minus 6 both sides
3x=-81
divide both sides by 3
x=-27
x+2=-25
x+4=-23

the largest is the farthest to right on a number line
largest is -23

Answer:

$f(2) = 81$

$g(2) = 83$

Science class had a higher average

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 0.5x + 80$

g(x) table

Solving (a): f(2)

We have:

$f(x) = 0.5x + 80$

So:

$f(2) = 0.5*2 + 80$

$f(2) = 1 + 80$

$f(2) = 81$

Solving (b): g(2)

From the given table.

$g(2) = 83$

Solving (c): f(4) or g(4); which is greater

$f(x) = 0.5x + 80$

So:

$f(4) = 0.5*4+80$

$f(4) = 2+80$

$f(4) = 82$

For g(4): Notice that in the table of g(x); g(x) increases by 2 when x increases by 1

This means that:

$g(x) = g(x-1)+2$

$g(4) = g(4-1)+2:$

$g(4) = g(3)+2$

$g(4) = 85+2$

$g(4) = 87$

Hence, g(4) i.e. Science class is greater
