Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:consecutive integers are represented by x, x+1 , so for this problem the greater one is represented by x + 1.
Now you need to translate the problem. the greater is seven less than 1/3 the smaller
---> x + 1 = (1/3)*x - 7 ---> now solve for x (the smaller) and x+1 (the greater)
***hint: to get rid of fractions in an equation you can always multiply EVERYTHING by the denominator , 3 in this case
Answer:
$45.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find attached an image of the shoe that was used in answering this question
From the image, the price of the shoe is $59.95
Let x be the amount you had with you
The equation that would be used to solve this question is :
(x + 20) - $59.5 = $5.50
Solve for x
x = $45.45
Answer:
4.615 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle ABC and ABD are similar because they have two corresponding congruent triangles that is right angle and ∠A. Triangle ABC and BCD are similar because they have two corresponding congruent triangles that is right angle and ∠C. Therefore Triangle ABC, ABD and BCD are similar. Since they are similar, then their sides are proportional in length.
In triangle ABC, using Pythagoras theorem:
AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = 12² + 5²
AC² = 144 + 25 = 169
AC² = 169
AC = √169 = 13 in
Using similar triangle for ΔABC and ΔABD:
