Answer:

The expression for the other number is (n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The difference between two consecutive number is equal to 1

Let

x ----> the smaller of two consecutive number

n ----> the larger of two consecutive numbers

we have that

n-x=1

Solve for x

x=n-1

therefore

Answer:

  B

Step-by-step explanation:

The one FALSE statement in the bunch is ...

  \overline{OD}\cong\overline{AL}

__

The true statements for these segments would be ...

  \overline{OD}\cong\overline{JL}\\\\\overline{CD}\cong\overline{AL}

Express f(x) = |x-2| +|x+2| in the non-modulus form. Hence, sketch the graph of f.
alexgriva [62]
Recall that

|x|=\begin{cases}x&\text{if }x\ge0\\-x&\text{if }x

There are three cases to consider:

(1) When x+2, we have |x+2|=-(x+2) and |x-2|=-(x-2), so

|x-2|+|x+2|=-(x-2)-(x+2)=-2x-4

(2) When x+2\ge0 and x-2, we get |x+2|=x+2 and |x-2|=-(x-2), so

|x-2|+|x+2|=-(x-2)+(x+2)=4

(3) When x-2\ge0, we have |x+2|=x+2 and |x-2|=x-2, so

|x-2|+|x+2|=(x-2)+(x+2)=2x

So

|x-2|+|x+2|=\begin{cases}-2x-4&\text{if }x

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

$433.84

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the amount of money Jennifer earned for regular work time:

8.50 x 43 = 365.50

Then, find the amount of money Jennifer earned for overtime work:

10.50 x 6.5 = 68.25

Finally, add them:

365.50 + 68.25 = 433.75

What is the area, in square feet, of the trapezoid below?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

68.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure the length of the parallel sides and add them together. Then multiply this number by the height of the area. Then multiply by ½ or divide by two to find the square footage of the trapezoid.  

13.6 + 5.9= 19.5

19.5 + 8 = 27.5

27.5 x 5 = 137.5

137.5 x 1/2 = 68.75

Why might a mattress store choose to advertise new mattresses, worth $1,000, as $50 per week for 22 weeks?
IgorLugansk [536]
By doing so, they provide the illusion that the payments are cheaper then 1000 dollars, because 50 looks very small, when in reality it's $100 more then what the mattress is actually worth.
