<h2>Answer:</h2>

The first consecutive odd number is: 9

and the second consecutive odd number is: 11

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let the two consecutive odd numbers be: a and a+2

( Since, we know that the difference between two consecutive odd or two consecutive even numbers is always 2 )

Now, it is given that:

Three times the first is 5 more than twice the second.

i.e.

3a=5+2(a+2)\\\\i.e.\\\\3a=5+2a+4\\\\3a=5+4+2a\\\\3a=2a+9\\\\3a-2a=9\\\\a=9

Hence, we get:

The first consecutive odd number is: 9

and the  second consecutive odd number is: 9+2=11

jeka57 [31]

Given:

Mike gets an 8% commission on the sporting goods that he sells.

One day he sold sporting goods worth 1,384.

To find:

The commission for that day.

Solution:

According to the given information,

Commission = 8% of total sales of sporting goods

One day he sold sporting goods worth 1,384. Then, the commission for that day is

\text{Commission}=\dfrac{8}{100}\times 1384

\text{Commission}=\dfrac{11072}{100}

\text{Commission}=110.72

Therefore, the commission for that day is 110.72.

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

m=\frac{15}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

-6\left(1-m\right)=9-2m

-6(1-m)=-6+6m

-6+6m=9-2m

<u>Add 6 to both sides:-</u>

<u />-6+6m+6=9-2m+6

6m=-2m+15

<u>Now, add 2m to both sides:-</u>

<u />6m+2m=-2m+15+2m

<u>Divide both sides by 8:-</u>

<u />\frac{8m}{8}=\frac{15}{8}

m=\frac{15}{8}

Estimate 6 8 9 ( 1 9 10 ) by rounding to the nearest whole number. The estimate is the actual product because
siniylev [52]

Answer:

6\frac{8}{9} (1\frac{9}{10}) = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6\frac{8}{9} (1\frac{9}{10})

Required

Estimate

To do this; we start by converting both fractions to improper fraction

6\frac{8}{9} (1\frac{9}{10})

\frac{62}{9} (1\frac{9}{10})

\frac{62}{9} (\frac{19}{10})

Open Bracket

\frac{62}{9} * \frac{19}{10}

Combine to form a single fraction

\frac{62 * 19}{9 * 10}

Multiply numerators and denominators

\frac{1178}{90}

Convert fraction to decimal

13.0888888889

Approximate to nearest whole number

13

Hence, 6\frac{8}{9} (1\frac{9}{10}) = 13
