Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say the first odd integer is n. The next odd integer will be n + 2 then the next is n + 4.

The sum of the 3 integers is 9 so

n + n+2 + n+4 = 9

3n + 6 = 9

n = 1. <-- the first integer

The greatest is n + 4 = 5

A sno-cone machine priced at $139 is on sale for 20% off. What is the price of the sno-cone machine after the discount? *
lawyer [7]
So percents are just written as 20% = 0.2 so keep that in mind

139 divided by 0.2 is 95 , which would be the price after the discount :)

hope this helps!

Answer:

  • (a)  area = 3y^2 +14y +16
  • (b)  perimeter = 8y +20

Step-by-step explanation:

Part of the point of Algebra is that you can work with things that stand for numbers (almost) as easily as working with numbers themselves. Here, you are given values that stand for the length and width of the rectangle.

(a) You know the area of a rectangle is found by multiplying its length by its width. The same is true when length and width are algebraic expressions that stand for those numbers.

  <u>Given:</u> length = 3y+8, width = y+2

  <u>Find:</u> area = length × width

  <u>Solution:</u>

     area = (3y+8) × (y+2)

Using the distributive property, we can perform this multiplication in essentially the same way we would for the numbers 38 and 12.

     area = 3y(y +2) +8(y +2)           equivalent to 30(12) +8(12)

     = 3y^2 +6y +8y +16                  equivalent to 30·10 +30·2 +8·10 +8·2

     area = 3y^2 +14y +16              equivalent to 3·10^2 +14·10 +16

(Of course, with numbers, there are relationships between units and tens and hundreds that let us further combine terms. When variables are involved, we can combine terms with the same power of the variable, but we cannot combine "y" terms with "y^2" terms the way we can with numbers.)

___

(b) The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the four sides of the rectangle. Since two of those sides are "length" and two are "width", we can write ...

  perimeter = 2(length + width)

Making the substitution for length and width as defined above, we have

  perimeter = 2((3y+8) + (y+2))

  = 2(3y+y + 8+2) = 2(4y +10)

  perimeter = 8y +20

Sever21 [200]

To find the height of the cactus, make a ratio.

58 inches divided by 4 feet equals x inches divided by 8 feet.

58/4 = x/8

14.5 = x/8

116 = x

The height of the cactus is 116 inches.

Is 8 yd greater than 288 in.
jonny [76]
3 feet is equal to 1 yard and 3 feet is 36 inches. 288 inches divided by 36 is 8 so 8 yards is equal to 288 inches.
