Answer: 1 1/3
Step-by-step explanation: 7/15 plus 9/15 plus 4/15 equals 20/15 or 1 5/15. 5/15 divided by 5 equals 1/3. So the simplified answer is 1 1/3
Answer:
X = -10/6
X = -1,666666666666667
Step-by-step explanation:
First at all you join the X's
18x-12x = 14-24
Then you simplified:
6x = -10
X = -10/6
X = -1,666666666666667
Let's say the first number is "a"
the next consecutive can just be "a+1" and the next, you guessed it, "a+2"
the two smaller ones are a and a+1, the larger one is a+2
now, the product of "a" and "a+1" equals 5 times "a+2" but less by 5
thus a(a + 1) = 5(a + 2) - 5 <----- solve for "a"
35 + 8w = 179.40
8w = 179.40 - 35
8w = 144.40
w = 144.40/8
w = 18.05 per week
