The answer is 6, 4 divided by 2/3 =6
if you need to show your work just multiply by the reciprocal :)
3px = 2q(r-5x)
distribute
2qr - 10qx
3px = 2qr - 10qx
To solve for x
add 10qx to both sides
3px + 10qx = 2qr
factor out x
x(3p+10q) = 2qr
divide both sides by 3p+10q to isolate x
x = 2qr / <span>(3p+10q)
Hope this helps :)</span>
Answer:
<em>The integers are 39 and 40.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller integer be x.
The next greater integer is x + 1.
Their sum is x + x + 1.
Their sum is 79, so
x + x + 1 = 79
Solve for x.
2x + 1 = 79
2x = 78
x = 39
x + 1 = 40
