If seven consecutive numbers equal to 182, which one is the smallest?

Answer:

23.

Step-by-step explanation:

My assumption: You mean when you add the numbers, they equal 182.

Let x be the smallest number. Then we are asked to solve the following equation:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) + (x + 4) + (x + 5) + (x + 6) = 182.

Rearranging the equation gives us:

7x + 21 = 182 => x + 3 = 26 => x = 23.

So the smallest number is 23 (since our assumption was that x is the smallest number.

----

You could very well have stated that x was the middle number as a lot of cancellations would occur. That is:

(x - 3) + (x - 2) + (x - 1) + x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x - 3) = 182.

7x = 182 => x = 26 so the smallest would be 26 - 3 = 23.

7. Given a right triangle as shown below, use a calculator to estimate the length of the
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

D. 11.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing length of the right angled triangle can be calculated using Pythagorean Theorem as shown below:

c^2 - b^2 = a^2

Where,

a = x cm

b = 11 cm

c = 16 cm

Thus:

16^2 - 11^2 = x^2

256 - 121 = x^2

135 = x^2

\sqrt{135} = \sqrt{x^2}

\sqrt{135} = x

11.61895 = x

x = 11.6 cm (nearest tenth)
