I did these about 1 year ago but i think you subtract the 6 from 30 and then divide by 4, and that gives u 24/4 which is 6. i barely barely remember some so
Answer:
31
Step-by-step explanation:
4 squared is 16, and 5 times 3 is fifteen if you add them you get 31
Answer:
x=2 and y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
1). Plug the y value into the second equation. It will look like the following afte you plug in what y equals:
-2x-3(6x-11)=-7
2). Then, you distribute the "-3" to all the terms inside the parenthesis.
-2x-18x+33=7
3). Then, you subtract the positive 33 from both sides to try to get the x alone on one side.
-2x-18x=-40
4.) Then, you combine all of the terms containing an x.
-20x=-40
5). Finally, you divide both sides by -20 and the outcome is x=2.
6). Hold up...we ain't done yet..
7). Next, you have to plug the x back into the either equation to get the outcome of what y will be, but for this purpose I will plug it back into the first equation.
y=6(2)-11
8). I will then distribute the 6 into the all the terms in the parenthesis and then it will look like this.
y= 12-11
9). Do the math...and the answer is y=1.
Since the numbers are consecutive, they must be near each other in size, and therefore near one-third of 168. And since the lower number is -2 off the middle, and the upper number is +2 from the middle, the middle number must be exactly one-third of 168—otherwise the sum of the three could never be 168. Labelling the three consecutive numbers as x, y, and z:
x + y + z = 168
(y-2) + y + (y+2) = 168.
3y = 168
y = 56
therefore the smallest number (x) = 54.
