Three consecutive even integers can be represented by x, (x+2), and (x+4).
(x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)) - 10 = -22 Get rid of the parentheses
x + x + 2 + x + 4 - 10 = -22 Combine like terms (x + x + x) and (2 + 4 - 10)
3x - 4 = -22 Add 4 to both sides
3x = -18 Divide
x = -6
Check you work.
x = -6
x + 2 = -4
x + 4 = -2
(-6 - 4 - 2) - 10 = 22
-12 - 10 = -22
So, your three integers are -6, -4, and -2 .
Answer:
12 years
Step-by-step explanation:
T + 5 = A
Therefore T =A - 5
In three years T = 3+ (A-5)
thus T = A - 2
Also in three years T = 2/3 (A+3)
Equating the two
A -2 = 2/3 (A+3)
3A - 6 = 2A + 6
3A - 2A = 6 + 6
Therefore A = 12
Y=-1/3x+4
x2-x1/ y2-y1
(0,4)(2,-2)
2-0/-2-4
1/-3
y-intercept is 4
y=-1/3x+4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the fraction is "x"
hence putt in box we get,
1-x=3/7
x=1-3/7
taking LCM
x=7-3/7
x=4/7 Ans....
