Let the cosecutive numbers be like this :
2n + 1 , 2n + 2 , 2n + 3 , 2n + 4 , 2n + 5
Odd , Even , Odd , Even , Odd
______________________________
So we have :
(2n+1)+(2n+3)+(2n+5)=(2n+2)+(2n+4) + 39
6n + 9 = 4n + 6 + 39
6n + 9 = 4n + 45
Subtract both sides 9
6n + 9 - 9 = 4n + 45 - 9
6n + 0 = 4n + 36
6n = 4n + 36
Subtract both sides 4n
6n - 4n = 4n - 4n + 36
2n = 0 + 36
2n = 36
Divide both sides by 2
2n ÷ 2 = 36 ÷ 2
<em>n</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>8</em><em> </em>
______________________________
So the numbers are :
2(18)+1 , 2(18)+2 , 2(18)+3 , 2(18)+4 , 2(18)+5
36 + 1 , 36 + 2 , 36 + 3 , 36 + 4 , 36 + 5
37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41
As u can see the Odd numbers are :
37 , 39 , 41
And we're done ...

Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to do is add 14+34 which is 48. Since you know that she averaged 3 pieces of candy you have to divide 48 and 3 which is 16
First, lets convert our dimensions into cm.
2*2.54 = 5.08 cm.
1.5*2.54 = 3.81 cm.
Now, lets multiply by for the get the dimensions of the original painting in inches.
5.08*40 = 203.2 cm
3.81*40 = 152.4 cm
Finally, lets divide our new dimensions.
203.2/2.54 = 80 in.
152.4/2.54 = 60 in.
The dimensions of the original painting is 80 in. by 60 in.
Part I - First synthetic division
You need to use synthetic division to come up with an expression for a and b:
(x + 2) is a factor, and the remainder is 7, so we can draw a synthetic division table...
coefficients = 1 for X^3; A for X^2; B for X^1; and 3
-2 | 1 A B 3
-2 -2(A-2) 4(A-2)-2B
1 (A-2) -2(A-2)+B 4(A-2)-2B + 3
Remainder = 7
<u>So...</u>
4(A-2)-2B + 3 = 7
4 * (A - 2) - 2B + 3 = 7
4A - 8 - 2B = 4
4A - 2B = 12
2A - B = 6
Proved
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part II - Second Synthetic Division
We draw another synthetic division table, this time with (x - 1), so the number on the left hand side will be +1
1 | 1 A B 3
1 (A+1) A+B+1
1 (A+1) A+B+1 A+B+4
Remainder = 4
<u>So...</u>
A + B + 4 = 4
A + B = 0
<u>A = -B
</u>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part III - Solving for A and B with our two simultaneous equations
We know that<u> </u><u>A = -B</u><u /> and we also know that 2A - B = 6
Since we know that A is equal to -B We can substitute in A for -B, to get:
2A - B = 6
Therefore...
2A + A = 6
3A = 6
<u>A = 2</u>
Again, as we know that A = -B, and as we have found that A = 2, we can see:
A = -B
Therefore...
2 = -B
<u>B = -2
</u>
So our final answer is <u>A = 2, B = -2</u><u />
Hopefully this answer is more useful than the last one, and isn't so confusing!
