The answer to the equation is X= 27
The solutions would be 3 and 9
Let's the name the first number x and the consecutive number x + 1. The sum of both of these numbers equals to 53.
We now have our equation:
x + x + 1 = 53
Now solve for x.
x + x + 1 = 53
2x + 1 = 53 <-- Combine like terms
2x = 52 <-- Subtract 1 from each side
x = 26
So, the first number is 26 and the second number is 27.
If you have edunuity, the answer is... Two parallel lines will have the same slope. The slopes of parallel lines have to be equal. The y-intercepts of those two lines have to be different, otherwise they would be the same line. The x-intercepts of the parallel lines would also be different.
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
Chalice with purified water = 4
With spoiled milk = 5
With flat soda = 6
Probability of Jones drinking from a chalice with purified water after Donovan had drank from 3 = 1/3
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes = (4 + 5 + 6) = 15
After Donovan drinks 3 :
Total possible outcomes = (15 - 3) = 12
If the probability of Jones choosing a chalice with purified water is 1/3 then :
(Required outcome / Total possible outcomes) =1 /3
(Required outcome / 12) = 1 / 3
Required outcome * 3 = 12
Required outcome = 12 / 3
Required outcome = 4
Therefore, since initial number of chalice with purified water is 4,
4 - 4 = 0
Then Donovan did not drink from a chalice containing purified water.
