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!

Bill wants to rent a car. Rental Company A charges $45 plus $1 per mile driven. Rental Company B charges $25 plus $2 per mile dr

kkurt [141]

Answer:

20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

I set this up as a linear equation:

45 + x = 25 + 2x

1. subtract x from both sides

45 = 25 + x

2. subtract 25 from both sides to isolate the variable

20 = x

The perimeter of a rectangle is 64 feet. If one side of the rectangle has a length of 20 feet, how long is the other side?

Helga [31]

Answer:

other side is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Perimeter = 64 feet

L = 20

Formula

P = 2L + 2w Substitute Givens

64 = 2*20 + 2w Combine

64 = 40 + 2w Subtract 40 from both sides

64-40 = 40-40+2w Combine

24 = 2w Divide both sides by 2

24/2=2w/2

12 = w
