Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
There are a few solutions because there are some fractions and decimals between 8 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the unknown number be 'x'
If the number is greater than 8 and the same number is less than 10, this can be expressed as;
x>8 and x < 10
Note that if x>8, then 8<x
The resulting inequalities are now;
8<x and x<10
Combining both inequalities we have: 8<x<10
Since the inequality didn't tell us that the variable 'x' is equal to 8 and 10, this means that our solution falls between 8 and 10 and the value of integer that falls within this range is 9. Other values that falls within this range are decimals and fractions.
Therefore it can be concluded that there are a few solutions because there are some fractions and decimals between 8 and 10
Answer:
31
Step-by-step explanation:
x, x+1, x+2
x + x + 1 +x + 2 = 90
3x + 3 = 90
-3 -3
3x = 87
/3 /3
x = 29
29 + 2 = 31
Remark
The trick to this question is realizing what you took 1/3 of. Did you take it of the 150000 or is it 1/3 of some total you have to find. I don't think you could come up with a third choice.
It turns out that the answer is 1/3 of a number you don't know.
Equation
(1/3) x = 150000 Multiply both sides by 3
3*(1/3) x = 150000 * 3
x = 150000 * 3
x = 450000
Conclusion
The amount the company makes is 450000 dollars / year.
