FIRST SOLUTION!
first number = x
second number = x+2
third number = x+4
fourth number=x+6
fifth number=x+8
sixth number=x+10
seventh number=x+12
add all of those up and combine like terms to get 7x+42=357. Now subtract 42 from both sides to get 7x=315. Next, divide both sides by 7 to get x=45. To get the numbers, plug in 45 for x.
Your numbers should be 45,47,49,51,53,55, and 57.
Answer:
x= -17
Step-by-step explanation:
When we have 2 points, we can find the slope using
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Substituting what we know
1/5 = (0-3)/(x--2)
1/5 = -3/(x+2)
Using cross products
1*(x+2) = 5*(-3)
x+2 = -15
Subtract 2 from each side
x+2-2 = -15-2
x=-17
Answer:
37.5% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a relative percentage you generally follow the rule of part divided by whole.
$100 / $160 = .625 (62.5%)
So $100 is 62.5% of $160
To find the decrease we need to subtract 62.5% from 100%
100 - 62.5 = 37.5
45.864, because 57.33 divided by 100 is 0.5733 that multiplied by 80 is 45.864
