Answer:

38 and 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two integers are consecutive, then one is one larger than the other. Therefore, lets call them x and x+1. We can now set up the following equation:

x+(x+1)=77

2x+1=77

2x=76

x=38

x+1=39

Hope this helps!

Answer:I believe it is 39 and 38

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x+1) = 77

2x = 76

x = 38 (1st number)

x+1 = 39 (2nd number)

Jon said, “m-1 is always greater than 1-m. Do you agree with Jon? LIURE DOMPE DI EL דים כר LECCE RE: A. Agree, because m is a po
Trava [24]

Given that Jon said,

"m-1 is always greater than 1-m"

we want to find how true the statement is;

\begin{gathered} \text{for m = positive integer.} \\ m=5 \\ m-1=5-1=4 \\ 1-m=1-5=-4 \\ So,\text{ } \\ m-1>1-m \\ \text{for m equals positive integer } \end{gathered}

secondly for negative values of m;

\begin{gathered} m=-5 \\ m-1=-5-1=-6 \\ 1-m=1-(-5)=1+5=6 \\ So, \\ m-1

So, the statement "m-1 is always greater than 1-m" is false.

Because 1- m is greater than m-1 when m is a negative integer.

Therefore, I Disagree, because 1- m is greater than m-1 when m is a negative integer

Choose all that give the correct expression for the quantity described. The difference of nine times a number x and the quotient
ohaa [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to get the expression for the following statements;

1) The difference of nine times a number x and the quotient of that number and 5.

The product of nine and a number x is expressed as;

=9 \times x\\= 9x

The quotient of that number and 5.

= \frac{x}{5}

The difference between both expression;

9x - \frac{x}{5}

Hence, the difference of nine times a number x and the quotient of that number and 5 is expressed as 9x - \frac{x}{5}

2) Eight more than the quotient of twelve and a number n

Quotient of twelve and a number n is expressed as:

\frac{n}{12}

Eight more than the resulting function is;

\frac{n}{12}+8

Hence eight more than the quotient of twelve and a number n is expressed as \frac{n}{12}+8

3) The product of a number and the quantity 'six minus the number' plus the quotient of eight and the number.

Let the number be x:

six minus the number is expressed as;

6-x

product of a number x and the quantity 'six minus the number is;

x(6-x)

quotient of eight and the number is;

\frac{8}{x}

Taking the resulting sum of the last two expression

x(6-x) + 8x

Hence the product of a number and the quantity 'six minus the number' plus the quotient of eight and the number is expressed as;

x(6-x) + 8x

4) Sum of three consecutive even integers. 2x + (2x + 2) + (2x + 4).

Let the first even number be 2x

The consecutive even numbers are gotten by adding 2 to the preceding number. The two consecutive even integers are 2x+2 and 2x+2+2

the sum of three consecutive even integers is expressed as;

= 2x +(2x+2)+(2x+2+2)\\=  2x+(2x+2)+(2x+4)
