The ages are consecutive even numbers.
The youngest child is (x+3) years old.
Every even number is 2 more than the one before it.
So the three ages are
(x + 3), (x + 5), and (x + 7).
Their sum is x+3 + x+5 + x+7 = 3x + 15
But we're told that their sum is 42, so we can write
3x + 15 = 42 <== the equation
Subtract 15 from each side: 3x = 27
Divide each side by 3 : x = 9 <== the solution
So the three ages are 12, 14, and 16.
The oldest child is 16 years old.
Answer: $15
Step-by-step explanation:
-$50 + $75 = $15
Answer:
Your answer would be D, the equation is a function because it is a polynomial and all polynomials are functions.
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to remember that polynomials have no negative , fraction exponents and no division. In this case everything is positive so I knew it was a polynomial , and like the answer says all polynomials are functions !
Hope this helped
