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.

A box is x to inches high,(2x+3)inches wide, and (2x+5) of inches long. In terms of x, what is the volume (v) of the box?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The volume of the box is V=(4x^3+16x^2+15x)\ in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the box is equal to

V=LWH

where

L is the length of the box in inches

W is the width of the box in inches

H is the height of the box in inches

we have

L=(2x+5)\ in\\W=(2x+3)\ in\\H=x\ in

substitute in the formula

V=(2x+5)(2x+3)x

V=(4x^2+6x+10x+15)(x)

V=(4x^2+16x+15)(x)

V=(4x^3+16x^2+15x)\ in^3

A direct variation function contains the points (2, 14) and (4, 28). Which equation represents the function?
IgorC [24]
Direct variation mean x =ky so y = x/k

(2,14) mean y = kx so 14 = k*2 so 14 = 7*2 so 14 = 14 
(4,28) mean y = kx so 28 = k*4 so 28 = 7*4 so 28 = 28

from these result that the 3rd choice is right sure

Find the equation of the line through the point (7,-6) with the slope -15/13
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

y + 6 = -15/13(x-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute m= -15/13 and the point (7,-6) into the point slope form.

y --6 = -15/13 (x - 7)

y + 6 = -15/13(x-7)
