Answer:

11 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

the first (smaller) odd integer can be called x

the second (larger) odd integer can be called x+2

2(x+2)+x = 37

[simplify . . .]

2x+4+x = 37

3x+4 = 37

[subtract 4 from each side]

3x = 33

[divide each side by 3; find smaller odd integer]

x = 11

[add 2 to find larger odd integer]

x+2 = 13

Evaluate each expression for t = 0, x = 1.5, y = 6, and z = 23

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

1. 11

2. 20

3. 34

4. 12.6

5. 18

6. 105

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that ---> t = 0, x = 1.5, y = 6, and z = 23

1. y + 5

= 6 + 5

= 11

2. z - 2x

= 23 - 2(1.5)

= 23 - 3

= 20

3. 2z - 2y

= 2(23) - 2(6)

= 46 - 12

= 34

4. 2.6y - 2x

= 2.6(6) - 2(1.5)

= 15.6 - 3

= 12.6

5. 4(y - x)

= 4(6 - 1.5)

= 24 - 6

= 18

6. 4(2 + z) + 5

= 4(2 + 23) + 5

= 8 + 92 + 5

= 105

I just need an explanation for both of these! Help would be greatly appreciated, thanks. :))

Answer:

1. Well, to cross multiply them you multiply the numerator in the first fraction times the denominator in the second fraction, then you write that number down. ... The reason we cross multiply fractions is to compare them. Cross multiplying fractions tells us if two fractions are equal or which one is greater.

2. Cross multiplying fractions to find a missing numerator or denominator for equivalent fractions works because it is a shortcut for rearranging to isolate the variable.

Answer:

3308.5 thousands or 3,308,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a formula that represented the number of incarcerated adults N (measured in thousands) in a certain country can be approximated by the equation $N=2.7x^2+72.4x+1911$ where x is the number of years since 2000.
