Let the integers be x + (x+1) + (x + 2) 

<span>x + (x+1) + (x + 2) = 267 </span>

<span>3x + 3 = 267 </span>
<span>3x = 264 </span>
<span>x = 88 </span>

<span>88+89+90=267 </span>

<span>Largest integer=90 </span>

<span>Another method </span>

<span>267/3 = 89 </span>

<span>It's the average,so it has to be the middle one. </span>

<span>Thus 89, then I took 89 - 1 = 88 and 89 + 1 = 90 and just put them in order. </span>

<span>88+89+90=267 </span>

<span>Largest integer=90</span>

Temperature in Detroit < Temperature in Boston .........> I

2- Detroit is warmer that <span>Minneapolis, this means that:
Temperature is </span><span>Minneapolis < Temperature in Detroit .........> II

From I and II, we can conclude that:
</span><span>Minneapolis has the lowest temperature, followed by Detroit and then Boston.

Comparing this to the choices, we will find that the correct choice is:
</span><span>2. Minneapolis's temperature < Detroit's temperature < Boston's temperature</span>

n200080 [17]

Answer:

2580 degrees rotated per second

Step-by-step explanation:

since  you have to find the degrees it rotates per second.

you need to divide 430 by 60 to find rotations per second

1)          430/60

             =  7.16666667 rotations per second

-then you have to multiply it by 360 degrees ,because their is 360 degrees in a circle

2)        7.16666667 (360)

            =  2580 degrees rotated per second

What number plus 2 less than 3 times the number equals 14
Afina-wow [57]

Obviously this will be a negative number

-2 - 14 = 5x - 3x

 

-16 = 2x

x = %28-16%29%2F2

x = -8 is the number

:

:

Check solution in the original statement: x=-8

3(-8) - 2 = 5(-8) + 14

-24 - 2 = -40 + 14

-26 = -26
