Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the smallest integer is x, the next odd number would be x + 2, and the largest would be x + 4. The sum of the largest (x+4) and twice the smallest (2x) is 25. The equation for that would be (x+4)+2x=25 which is 3x + 4 = 25. Not sure how far you have to go with it. But that equation could be solved for x.

A falcon flying 55 mph crosses a lake in 1 minute. How long would it take a hummingbird flying 45 mph to cross the same lake?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1 2/9 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

55 mph

55 / 60 = 11/12

11/12 of a mile = 1 minute

45 mph

45 / 60 = 3/4

3/4 of a mile = 1 minute

11/12 divided by 3/4

11/12 * 4/3

We can cross-cancel

11/3 * 1/3 = 11/9 = 1 2/9

It takes 1 2/9 minutes for the hummingbird to cross the lake

Hope this helps!
