Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2 options
8,5,17 and 3,4,5
First write 40% as the decimal .40.
The word "of" tells us to multiply.
So we have (.40)(20) which is 8.
So 40% of 20 is 8.
So let the smallest integer be y.
y + y+1 + y+2 + y+3 = -26
4y + 6 = -26
4y= -32
y = -8
so the integers are -8, -7, -6, and -5
Let be the coordinates of point P.
The distance from the x-axis is exactly the y coordinates of point P.
The distance from the point (3,-3) is given by
So, we want
We can square both sides to get
Expanding the squares, we have
So, the final equation is
In the equation
divide both sides by to get
Take the base-3/2 logarithm of both sides:
Alternatively, you can divide both sides by :
Then take the base-2/3 logarith of both sides to get
(Both answers are equivalent)
