Answer:
|x - 5| = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are not given a zero on the number line, we do the following:
Average = midpoint between two numbers on the number line
For this number line,
Average = 3 + 7 ÷ 2
Average = 5
Next we find how many units away are each number from the middle:
3 is 2 units away from 5
7 is 2 units away from 5
Units away = 2
Let's use the formula:
|x - average| = Units away
Substitute values into equation
|x - 5| = 2
Now we solve
Solve for x over the integers:
|x - 5| = 2
Split the equation into two possible equations:
x - 5 = 2 or x - 5 = -2
Add 5 to both sides:
x = -5 + 5 = 2 + 5 or x - 5 + 5 = -2 + 5
Answer:
x = 7 or x = 3

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
When trying to figure this out, we know that the numbers have to be one after the other, like 1, 2, 3, 4, or 55. 56, 57, 58. The last digit in the numbers also have to add to 6.
<u>The answer is:</u>
100 + 101 + 102 + 103
It adds up to 406, and the integers are consecutive.

Answer:
<u>The number of pens = 120 and the number of pencils = 200</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of pens x, and the number of pencils is y
the cost of one pen $1, and the cost of one pencil $0.5
The cost of the whole purchase was $220
1 * x + 0.5 * y = 220
x + 0.5 y = 220 ⇒ eq.(1)
there were 80 more pencils than pens
y - x = 80 ⇒ eq.(2)
from eq.(2) x = y - 80
By substitution with x from the last equation at eq.(1)
∴ (y - 80) + 0.5 y = 220
1.5y = 220 + 80 = 300
y = 300/1.5 = 200
x = y - 80 = 200 - 80 = 120
<u>So, the number of pens = 120 and the number of pencils = 200</u>
