Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
12 -4x-5x = 39
Combine like terms
12 - 9x = 39
Subtract 12 from each side
12-9x-12 = 39-12
-9x = 27
Divide by -9
-9x/-9 = 27/-9
x = -3
Answer: the height in inches, of the pile after 3 weeks is 34 11/12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Each consecutive week for the next 5 weeks the height of pile increase by 8 7/12 inches. Converting 8 7/12 inches to improper fraction, it becomes 103/12 inches. The height is increasing in an arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as
Tn = a + (n - 1)d
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
d represents the common difference.
n represents the number of terms in the sequence.
From the information given,
a = 17 3/4= 71/4 inches
d = 103/12 inches
n = 3 weeks
the height in inches, of the pile after 3 weeks, T3. Therefore,
T3 = 71/4 + (3 - 1)103/12
T3 = 71/4 + 2 × 103/12 = 71/4 + 103/6
T3 = 419/12 inches = 34 11/12 inches
Answer:
4032 integers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lest start with -2016. There are 2016 integers from -2016 to 0. Then we see how many integers are from 0 to 2016. there are 2016. If you add them up, you get 4032.
