The answer is 79 and 80.

x - the number of the first locker
x + 1 - the number of the consecutive locker
Their sum is 159.

x + x + 1 = 159
2x + 1 = 159
2x = 159 - 1
2x = 158
x = 158 / 2
x = 79


x - the number of the first locker:                      x = 79
x + 1 - the number of the consecutive locker    x + 1 = 79 + 1 = 80

Answer:

0.56 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed of a body tells how fast is the body moving; it is calculated as:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we don't know the distance covered by Ben. Therefore, we will assume that it is 1 km:

d = 1 km = 1000 m

The time elapsed to cover this distance is:

t=30 min \cdot 60 =1800 s

Therefore, Ben's average speed is:

v=\frac{1000}{1800}=0.56 m/s

Find the area of the triangle below.
svp [43]

Answer:

  (5/6)x²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is given by the formula

  A = (1/2)bh

Here, the base is 5/3x, and the height is x. So, the area is ...

  A = (1/2)(5/3x)(x) = (5/6)x²

In ⊙L, m∠NMO=9x−3 and m∠NPO=4x+12. Find mNO.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

arc NO has measure 48

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume all measures are in consistent units (degrees or something similar). The two inscribed angles intercept the same arc, so are congruent:

9x -3 = 4x +12

5x = 15 . . . . . . . add 3-4x

x = 3 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

The measure of the inscribed angle is then ...

4x +12 = 4(3) +12 = 24

That is half the measure of the arc, so the measure of arc NO is ...

arc NO = 2·24 = 48

<h3>Why isn’t a good idea to study in bed?</h3>

Answer: Working or doing homework in bed will reduce one's focus because most people tend to associate their beds with comfort and sleep. Doing such activities in bed can lead to a deviation of the brain to become more lazy and possibly fall asleep.
