So we can call first number "n"
Then all five integers would be n, n+1, n+2, n+3, n+4
So sum of them would be 5n + 10 = 100
Now you can solve for n:
5n + 10 = 100
5n = 90
n = 18
Verify: 18 + 19 + 20 + 21 + 22 = 100. All good.
So answer is 18

Answer:
(6, - 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x + 5y = - 3 → (1)
2x + 2y = 6 → (2)
Subtracting (1) from (2) term by term will eliminate the x- term
(2x - 2x) + (2y - 5y) = 6 - (- 3), that is
- 3y = 9 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
y = - 3
Substitute y = - 3 in either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting y = - 3 in (1)
2x + 5(- 3) = - 3
2x - 15 = - 3 ( add 15 to both sides )
2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 6
Solution is (6, - 3 )

Answer: 6 ounces</h3>
========================================================
Work Shown:
(6 servings)/(4 oz of sauce) = (8 servings)/(x oz of sauce)
6/4 = 8/x
6*x = 4*8
6x = 32
x = 32/6
x = 5.333 approximately
x = 6 we round up despite 5.333 being closer to 5, than it is to 6.
If we went with 5 ounces, then we wouldn't clear the hurdle needed to serve 8 people.
The section below goes over why this is the case in more detail.
---------
6 servings : 4 ounces
6/4 servings : 4/4 ounces
1.5 servings : 1 ounce
So one ounce of sauce gets us 1.5 servings.
If we multiply both sides by 5, then,
1.5 servings : 1 ounce
5*1.5 servings : 5*1 ounce
7.5 servings : 5 ounces
This shows that 5 ounces of sauce will only produce 7.5 servings, which comes up short compared to 8 servings.
If we multiplied both sides by 6, then
1.5 servings : 1 ounce
6*1.5 servings : 6*1 ounce
9 servings : 6 ounces
This shows that 6 ounces of sauce yields 9 servings. We've gone overboard, but it's better to do that than come up short.
