The three even integers are 80, 82, and 84.
The sum of the first (80) and the third (84) integers = 80 + 84 = 164, verifying our answer.
A simple way to figure this out is to divide 164 by 2, which gives you 82. From this answer, if we subtract 2 to get the first integer and add 2 to get the third integer while keeping 82 as the second integer, we end up with the correct sum of 164.
Hope this helps!
The original value of x was negative, then –x, the opposite-signed version of x, would have to be positive. For instance, if I start with x = –3, then –x = –(–3) = +3, which is positive.
Answer:
? = 7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
? = x
a denominator can’t be equal to 0
x ≠ 0
14/x = 4
14 = 4x
x = 7/2
Answer:
The sign would be positive.
The answer would be 144.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that there are two negative numbers and two positive numbers:
positive x positive = positive answer.
negative x negative = positive answer.
Solve:
(-4) * (-3) = 12
2 * 6 = 12
12 * 12 = 144
144 would be your answer.
