Answer:
406
Step-by-step explanation:
Five consecutive positive integers = x, (x+1), (x+2), (x+3), (x+4)
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) = 2020
5x + 10 = 2020
5x = 2020-10
5x = 2010
x = 2010÷5
x = 402
The largest of the number is = x+4
x+4 = 402 + 4 = 406
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
first substitute y with the value (-5)
2x+5(-5)=-5 which is simplified to 2x+-25=-5
add 25 to -5 which gives you 2x=20
then divide 20 by 2 which makes x=10
A positive number
This is because you must add to get from a negative number in order to get to a positive number.
Answer:
$199.50
Step-by-step explanation:
10% discount of $34 = 10/100*34 = $3.40
so, a single shirt costs $34-$3.40 = $30.60
half off = 50% discount of $31 = 50/100*31 = $15.50
so, a single cap costs $31-$15.50 = $15.50
so, 5 shirts and 3 caps cost now
5*$30.60 + 3*$15.50 = $153 + $46.50 = $199.50
but careful - can this be a trick question ?
the phrasing of the problem description can also suggest that the discounts are only listed to confuse us and are already included in the mentioned prices ("worth" $34 - what does that mean ? because including the discounts they are currently "worth" their prices).
then it would just plainly be
5*$34 + 3*$31 = $170 + $93 = $263
To start, you want to determine the inequality. You can do this by setting the number of buying n fish to be less than or equal to her current amount of money, being as it can't go over or she wouldn't be able to afford the fish. This inequality would be written so her amount of money (20) would be greater than or equal to the cost of n fish (2.5n), which would then look as such: 20≥2.5n. To solve this inequality, just solve for n by dividing both sides by 2.5, giving you 8≥n. This would mean that Becky can afford to buy up to 8 fish.
