Answer: a) 90

b)n can be 60,62,64; 62,64,66; 64,66,68; 66,68,70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive even numbers be n, n+2, n+4.

Sum is given by

n+n+2+n+4\\\\=3n+6

So, half of that sum is given by

\frac{1}{2}\times (3n+6)

And it is between 90 and 105.

a)Write an inequality to find the three numbers. Let n represent the smallest even number.

so, it becomes,

90

b)Solve the inequality:

90

Hence, n is somewhere between 58 and 68.

Therefore, n can be 60,62,64; 62,64,66; 64,66,68; 66,68,70.

If 3t-7=5t, then 6t=?<br><br> Explain how you got your answer!
kirill [66]

Answer:

6t = -21

Step-by-step explanation:

3t-7 = 5t simplifies by subtracting 5t on both sides, then adding 7 on both sides:

3t -5t  -7 +7 = 5t-5t+7

-2t = 7

t = -7/2

Then 6t = 6*-7/2 = -21

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of 5 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a t
nikdorinn [45]

Each large box weighs 15 kilograms and each small box weighs 13.5 kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Weight of large box = x

Weight of small box = y

According to given statement;

5x+2y=102      Eqn 1

3x+8y=153      Eqn 2

Multiyplying Eqn 1 by 4

4(5x+2y=102)\\20x+8y=408\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

(20x+8y)-(3x+8y)=408-153\\20x+8y-3x-8y=255\\17x=255

Dividing both sides by 17

\frac{17x}{17}=\frac{255}{17}\\x=15

Putting x=15 in Eqn 2

15(3)+8y=153\\45+8y=153\\8y=153-45\\8y=108

Dividing both sides by 8

\frac{8y}{8}=\frac{108}{8}\\y=13.5

Each large box weighs 15 kilograms and each small box weighs 13.5 kilograms.
