X + (x − 2) + (x − 4) = ? ; In which
<span>
x + x </span>− 2 + x − 4 ;
Combine the "like terms" ;
x + x + x = 3x ;
− 2 − 4 = −6 ;
So we have: "3x − 6" as the sum. ;
___________________________
The sum of three consecutive odd integers, in which "x" is the greatest integer; is: "3x − 6" .
_____________________________________________
Note: The three consecutive odd integers, from least to greatest, are:
"(x − 4)" , "(x − 2)" , and "x" .
The sum is: "(3x − 6)<span>" .
</span>_____________________________________________
Note: "(3x − 6)" factors into: " 3(x −2)" .
Note that: " (x − 2) " is the second integer.
______________________________________________
So the sum total, which is: "(3x − 6)" ; is 3 (three) times the value of the second integer; that is, "3 (x − 2)" .

Answer:
$5.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the difference between the weeks as this will give you the difference hence the amount deposited each week
0->1
is 12.00->17.75
diffrence is $5.75
1->2
is 17.75->23.50
diffrence is $5.75
the amount saved each week is $5.75
Answer: Seventh power of 10
Step-by-step explanation:
X > 1 so exponent will be positive and decimal point moves left. At each point divide X by 10, add 1 to exponent of 10. Exponent starts at zero.
Each time you move the decimal point one to left, you have divided the number by 10, so you have to compensate by multiplying the 10^n factor by 10, say 10 × 10^3 = 10×10×10×10 = 10^4.
12345678 = 12345678 × 10^0
= 1234567.8 × 10^1
= 123456.78 × 10^2
= 12345.678 × 10^3
= 1234.5678 × 10^4
= 123.45678 × 10^5
= 12.345678 × 10^6
= 1.2345678 × 10^7
Each time you move decimal to right, you have multiplied the number by 10, so you have to compensate by dividing the 10^n by 10, subtracting one from exponent.
0.000123 × 10^0 = 0.00123 × 10^-1
= 0.0123 × 10^-2 = 0.123 × 10^-3 = 1.23 × 10^-4
10^-2 / 10 = (1/(10×10)) / 10 = 1/(10×10×10) = 10^-3
