<h3>Answer:  12</h3>

==========================================================

Work Shown:

x = first number

x+1 = second number

x+2 = third number

x+3 = fourth number

x+4 = fifth number

Note how the numbers are one after another. Consecutive numbers follow this pattern. For example: 6,7,8,9,10 are consecutive numbers. One number follows right after the other.

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

Add up those five expressions. Set the sum equal to 70 and solve for x

(x)+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4) = 70

(x+x+x+x+x)+(1+2+3+4) = 70

5x+10 = 70

5x = 70-10

5x = 60

x = 60/5

x = 12 is the first number and the smallest number

x+1 = 12+1 = 13 is the second number

x+2 = 12+2 = 14 is the third number

x+3 = 12+3 = 15 is the fourth number

x+4 = 12+4 = 16 is the fifth number

Check:

12+13+14+15+16 = 70

which confirms our answer

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

You could use a guess and check method, but the algebraic approach is much more efficient.

The graph below shows the distance, y, in miles, of a bird from its nest for a certain amount of time, x, in minutes:
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

0.2 miles per minute represents the speed of the bird and 3 miles represents the original distance of the bird from its nest.

Step-by-step explanation:

As there is no graph mentioned here but the information are quite sufficient to answer the question.

We have points (0,3), (5,4),(10,5)...

From these points we can find the slope of the line .

From point slope formula y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

And assigning (x,y) (0,3) and (x_1,y_1) (5,4)

m=\frac{y_1-y}{x_1-x} =\frac{4-3}{5-0} =\frac{1}{5}=0.2

This slope is also the speed of the bird which is 0.2\ miles\ per\ minute.

As by plugging the values of any coordinate point we can confirm this.

Lets put (10,5), y-axis is the distance so in 10 minutes the the distance covered by the bird must be equal to to y-axis value which is 5 miles.

y=0.2(x),y=0.2(10)=5\ miles

Now as in t=0 the bird has started from y-intercept value 3 so we can say that,the original distance of the bird from its nest is 3\ miles.

So the correct choices are:B and D

The birds speed is 0.2\ miles per minute and is 3\ miles away from its nest.

A teacher selects students from her class of 37 students to do 4 different jobs in the classroom: pick up homework, hand out per
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

66045 ways

Step-by-step explanation: There are actually total of 37 student, and total of 4 jobs. But if the jobs are to be done by only one person each, then we are selecting 4 students.

So the number of ways of selecting 4 out of 37 using combination is

=37C4

=37!/(37-4)!(4!)

=37!/33!4!

=66045
