Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive means in a row

x = 1st number

x+1 = 2nd number

x+x+1 = 17

Combine like terms

2x+1 = 17

Subtract 1 from each side

2x+1-1=17-1

2x = 16

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =16/2

x=8

x+1 = 9

The larger number is 9

At the movies a bag of popcorn cost $3.50 and a bottle of water coast $2.75. If Madeline has $18 and bought two bottles of water
algol13
Multiple the cost of the water bottle ($2.75) then whatever you answer is, you subtract that from 18. She should have $12.5 left. The most bags of popcorn she could get is 3. Just add $3.50 until it’s closes to the amounts of money she has left.

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yanka [14]

Answer:

The answer is A. k = 4.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find proportionality, solve for 8.5 divided by 2 and 17 divided by 4.

Both of those answers are 4.25, so that would be the final answer.
