Item 18 Two times the greater of two consecutive integers is 9 less than three times the lesser integer. What are the integers?

Answer:

11 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive integers be x and x+1

The lesser integer = x

The greater integer = x+1

Two times the greater of two consecutive integers is expressed as;

2(x+1) = 2x+2.

9 less than three times the lesser integer is expressed as;

3x - 9

Equate both expression

2x+2 = 3x - 9

2x-3x = -9-2

-x = -11.

x = 11

The greater integer = x+1 = 11+1 = 12

Hence the integers are 11 and 12

  2.923----> move the decimal three times to the left because that is how many spaces you have to the right on the actual equation until the next decimal.

The product of 0.79x 3.7 is 2.923. And, the decimal was moved three times to the right of the equation because of the number of spaces until the next decimal which then allows you to move the decimal three times to the left on the product.

Please i need help on finding the volume
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Volume =  516.1425 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The pentagon base appears regular.  so every side is 10 feet in length.

Now we need to figure out the area of the pentagonal base in order to find volume.

Volume V = (pentagon base area)*height

I need to find the apothem length as indicated in the drawing.

call it "a"

360/5 =  72 degrees.

36 degrees.

5/a = tan 36 ,    a =  5/(tan 36) = 6.88190  feet.

Area of pentagon base =  5 *  (1/2)*10* a  =  5*(1/2)*10* 6.88190 =172.0475 sq. ft

Area of pentagon base =  =172.0475 sq. ft

V = 172.0475 * 3 = 516.1425 cubic feet
