Answer:
x = -4, y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
y - 12 + 2y = 12
=> 3y = 24
=> y = 8
x = 8 - 12
=> x = -4
Consecutive integers are 1 apart
they are
x,x+1,x+2
so it would be
x+x+1+x+2=45

Answer: 14.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First we calculate <u>3 to the power of 2</u> and get 9.
|
\/
9 + 9 -
= 14.
Now we add<u> 9 + 9</u> to get 18.
18 -
= 14.
Then, we<u> divide 8 by 2</u> to get 4.
18 - 4 = 14.
Then we subtract<u> 4 from 18</u> to get.....You guessed it,<u> 14</u>!
Answer:
Eldest: $298500
Middle: $165250
Youngest: $149250
Explanation:
We can show the siblings like this:
e=2y (eldest)
m=16000+y (middle)
To find the value of y, or the youngest sibling, we use an equation.
2y+16000+y+y=613000
Simplify:
4y+16000=613000
Subtract 16000 on both sides:
4y=597000
Divide both sides by 4:
y=149250
The youngest received $149250.
Knowing this, we can plug in the numbers into the original formulas:
e=2(149250)=298500 ...or $298500
m=16000+149250=165250 ...or $165250
y=149250 ...or $149250
Add all those numbers up, and you reach $613000.
