Let 
and 
be these consecutive integers. For some base 
, we can write
If
then
Now,
Squaring both sides gives
and so
(because the base has to be non-zero)
Mary worked 22 hours.
To solve first you would subtract the amount she made in tips from her total earnings (317-185)
= 132
Then you divide that answer by her hourly salary of $6 (132/6)
=22
Answer:
Hundreds.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 3 digits. And the decimal is after the value of 110.
First equation:
5(x+1)=20 —— distribute the 5 to the x and 1
5x+5=20 ——- subtract 5 from 20
5x=15 ———— divide by 5 from both sides
X=3 ————— answer
Second equation:
5x+1=20——— subtract 1 from 20
5x=19 ———— divide by 5 from both sides
X=19/5———— answer in fraction form
X=3.8————- answer in decimal form
