Jack was planting a tree. He was to dig a hole that was 3 feet deep for every 5 feet of tree height. How deep should he dig the hole for a tree that is 17feet high.
Calculations
Cross multiplication

=
5x = 2 x 13
Divide by 5 to isolate x

=
x = 10.2
Answer = 10.2
Distance=speed x time
so it would be 28 x 6=168
First integer = x
Second integer = x + 2
Third integer = x + 4
Since four times the first integer equals six more than the product of two and the third integer.
4x = 6 + 2(x + 4)
4x = 6 + 2x + 8
2x = 14
x = 7.
Hence,
First integer = x = 7
Second integer = x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
Third integer = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11.
hope this helps
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
as an expression: (15 - 6) + (-2 + 9)
simplify quantities: (9) + (7)
sum: 16
