The problem states that the current value is $350 and that is the original price plus 40%, that is $350 is the 140%, the question is how much is the 100%, or the original price, lets use a rule of three, simple, direct proportion:
140% --------> $350
100% --------> x
x = (100)(350)/140
x = 250
that is the original price, $250
Consecutive integers are 1 apart
so the 4 are
x, x+1,x+2,x+3
they add to 8
x+x+1+x+2+x+3=8
4x+6=8
minus 6 both sides
4x=2
divide both sides by 4
x=1/2
false, 1/2 is not an integer
if it was adding to 18, then the integers would be 3,4,5,6
but we can't find consecutive integers that add to 8
Answer: The distance between a and c is 8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
You can count the number of units they are apart, but if there isn’t a grid, then do this:
If x or y values in the ordered pairs are different, subtract them from each other and find the absolute value of the difference. (It’s my own rule, so there is a better method. My explanation apples only to ordered pairs that share a x or y value, like A and C)
2-(-6) = 8, and the absolute value of 8 is 8
Or
(-6)-2 = (-8), and the absolute value of -8 is 8 (You’ll get the same answer)

Answer: -2</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
Plug in x = -1 to find that
f(x) = 2|x-1|
f(-1) = 2|-1-1|
f(-1) = 2|-2|
f(-1) = 2*(2)
f(-1) = 4
If you repeat for x = 1, you should find that f(1) = 0

Now use the average rate of change formula below. Effectively, we're using the slope formula more or less.
The average rate of change on this interval is -2
This is the same as finding the slope through the points (-1, 4) and (1, 0).
<span>a. 72 And 115
7+2=9
1+1+5=7
not true that both are divisible by 3
b. 120 And 835
1+2=3
8+3+5=16</span>
<span><span>not true that both are divisible by 3
but, they're both divisible by 5! (0 or 5 at the end)
not relatively prime
</span> c. 201 And 735
2+1=3
7+3+5=15
both are divisible by 3!
d. 303 And 1041
3+3=6
1+4+1=6
both divisible by 3
so the answer is a </span>
