<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

Yes subtracting is taking away from another. 5-3 is two because you take 3 away from 5.

Answer:

a ^ (1/12)

Step-by-step explanation:

a ^ (1/3)

---------------

a ^ (1/4)

We know that b^ c / b^ d = b ^ (c-d)

a^ (1/3 - 1/4)

getting a common denominator

1/3 *4/4 - 1/4*3/3 = 4/12 - 3/12

a^ (4/12 - 3/12)

a ^ (1/12)

Nila uses the equation c=8h to figure out the total amount c she should charge a customer if she babysits for h hours.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

c = 10h

Step-by-step explanation:

c = 8h

Where,

c = Total amount she should charge a customer

h = Number of hours

8 = amount charged per hour of babysitting

A. 8 is the constant of proportionality and it means Nila charges $8 per hour of babysitting

B. If she decides to increase the rate she charges customers by $2 per hour, then the new equation she should use to determine how much to charge her customers is:

c = (8 + 2)h

c = 10h
