Answer:

The number of counties in state A are 70.

The number of counties in state B are 68.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of counties in state A and the number of counties in state B are consecutive even integers whose sum is 138.

Let the two consecutive even integers be x and x+2.

As their sum is 138, we can denote this mathematically as :

x+x+2=138

=> 2x+2=138

=> 2x=138-2

=> 2x=136

Now, we get x = 68

And x+2=68+2 = 70

Hence, the two numbers are 68 and 70.

So, the number of counties in state A are 70.

The number of counties in state B are 68.

Evaluate the expression shown for x = 9.
tatiyna

Answer:

B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Make 9 an improper fraction, then multiply by -5/6.

-5/6 times 9/1 = -45/6.

-45/6 cannot be simplified, so you make it a mixed number.

-7 1/2.

Add the 7 to -7 1/2 and that cancels out to 1/2
