Let's the name the first number x and the consecutive number x + 1. The sum of both of these numbers equals to 53.
We now have our equation:
x + x + 1 = 53
Now solve for x.
x + x + 1 = 53
2x + 1 = 53 <-- Combine like terms
2x = 52 <-- Subtract 1 from each side
x = 26
So, the first number is 26 and the second number is 27.
Answer:
A is 15, B is 1, and c is 4!
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because 15 (rooted number) would be the main focus, and since the x (normally by the rooted number) doesn't have a label (like 2x, 3x, etc.) it will be one. Then, the 4 (last number) is c (since it is on the outside and is likely the divisor.
Good luck!
Answer: it is c
Step-by-step explanation:
if it is leaking 3/4 in 1/2 h than it will leak 6/4 in one whole hour
Ok so in order to do this, you have to set up an equation. Let's make a=the score of the first test and b=the score of the second test. (You can choose different variables, it doesn't matter.) It says the sum of the two equals 170. So, a+b=170. It also says that the score of the first was 6 less than the second. This can be shown as a=b-6. Now you can plug this in for a in your original equation. It will look like:
(b-6)+b=170
You can solve for b.
2b-6=170
2b=176
b=88
Since you want a, plug into either equation for b. I'll use the second one.
a=88-6
So, a=82
