Answer:

You got it wrong, its the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

Since its not asking for a consectuive EVEN or ODD integer its not

X + X+2 + X+4...

Instead its just the normal way

X + X+1 + X+2 + X+3....

SO thats the correct answer.

The solution of - t/18 ≥ 10 is t ≤ -180 True or false?

liraira [26]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

given - $\frac{t}{18}$ ≥ 10 (multiply both sides by 18 )

- t ≥ 180 ( multiply both sides by - 1)

Remembering to reverse the symbol as a consequence of multiplying by a negative quantity, hence

t ≤ - 180

A scout troop plans to hike a 21-mile trail in the

Artemon [7]

Answer:

Equation B

Step-by-step explanation:

By going through the equations and comparing them to the question, we can determine the correct equation.

Equation A is the multiplication of the distance they have already hiked by 21.

Equation B is the subtraction of the distance already hiked from the total length of the trail.

Equation C is the same as Equation A, but with a factor of 17.5 instead of 21.

Equation D is the addition of the distance already hiked from the total length of the trail.

Therefore, Equation B is the correct answer.

The sum of three numbers $x$ ,$y$, $z$ is 165. When the smallest number $x$ is multiplied by 7, the result is $n$. The value $n$

babymother [125]

You're given

x + y + z = 165

7x = n

n = y - 9

n = 9 + z

and you want to find xyz.

Solve the last three equations for x, y, and z :

7x = n → x = n/7

n = y - 9 → y = n + 9

n = 9 + z → z = n - 9

Substitute x, y, and z into the first equation and solve for n :

n/7 + (n + 9) + (n - 9) = 165

n/7 + 2n = 165

n + 14n = 1155

15n = 1155

n = 77

Now solve for x, y, and z :

x = 77/7 = 11

y = 77 + 9 = 86

z = 77 - 9 = 68

Then the product is

xyz = 11 • 86 • 68 = 64,328
