If right is supposed to be eight then answer is 81
Answer:
Les trois nombres sont 5, 6 et 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
Soit x le premier nombre.
x + 1 sera le second et x + 2 sera le troisième.
On pose l'équation :
2x + 3(x + 1) = 4(x + 2)
2x + 3x + 3 = 4x + 8
5x - 4x = 8 - 3
x = 5
Answer:
first do:
60mph * 4 hours= 240mi
Let D = the distance the passenger train has to
travel to catch the freight train
Start a stopwatch when the passenger train leaves
Let t = the time on the stopwatch when they meet
Equation for freight train:
d-240=60t
Equation for passenger train:
d=100t
all together:
100t-240=60t
we can do 100t-60t because they both have (t)= 40t
40t=240 *now divide 240 by 40= 6
THEN do:
D= 100mph x 6= 600mi
They will meet 600 mi from the station
to check:
d-240=60t x 6
600-240= 360
60 x 6= 360
360=360
'of' means multiply
half a dozen means 12/2=6
6 of one thing means 6 times x
plus means ad
half a dozen of another mean 6 times y
they are added
6x+6y
2 variables
it says 'of the other' so they are diferent
