Let us assume the first odd number = x
Then the second consecutive odd number = x + 2
The third consecutive odd number = x + 4
The addition of the three consecutive odd numbers = 75
Then we can write the equation as
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 75
3x + 6 = 75
3x = 75 - 6
3x = 69
x = 69/3
= 23
Then
The greatest odd number in the question = X + 4
= 23 + 4
= 27
So the greatest odd number in the question is 27.
Theyre both equal. 8 tons is 16000 pounds.
1. distributive property
2. commutative property (the order of 8x and -24 is swapped)
3. reflexive property ((8-24) = -16; -16 is substituted for 8-24. I prefer "substitution property".)
4. commutative property (the order of 8x and -16 is swapped)
5. distributive property
The concert director can choose the new members by holding try outs to take the the possible candidate’s skills, performance and professionalism into consideration to be a part of the large show. Another way is by voting amongst other people in their school to see who the audience would be excited to see preforming in the show.
