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.

The Benton family wants to put a circular fence around their pool. They want it to be exactly 15 feet from the center of the poo
Eva8 [605]
The answer is <span>B. 94
</span>
The perimeter of a circle is:
P = 2 π r

The distance from the center of the pool to the fence is actually a radius of the circle:
r = 15 ft

P = 2 * 3.14 * 15
P = 94.2 ft² ≈ 94 ft²

What is (10y+6) (8y-6) ?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

y = 3/4 or y = -3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y:

(8 y - 6) (10 y + 6) = 0

Hint: | Find the roots of each term in the product separately.

Split into two equations:

8 y - 6 = 0 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Look at the first equation: Factor the left hand side.

Factor constant terms from the left hand side:

2 (4 y - 3) = 0 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides by 2:

4 y - 3 = 0 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left hand side.

Add 3 to both sides:

4 y = 3 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by 4:

y = 3/4 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Look at the second equation: Factor the left hand side.

Factor constant terms from the left hand side:

y = 3/4 or 2 (5 y + 3) = 0

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides by 2:

y = 3/4 or 5 y + 3 = 0

Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left hand side.

Subtract 3 from both sides:

y = 3/4 or 5 y = -3

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by 5:

Answer: y = 3/4 or y = -3/5
