<span>17/12 + 7/12 simplify and write the answer as a whole number.</span>
17/12+7/12 = 2
Speed = Distance ÷ time
Distance ÷ 6 - Distance ÷ 8 = 16
(8D - 6D) ÷ 48 = 16
2D = 16 x 48
2D = 768
D = 384 miles
A.
k=x
j=7+x
4j=200
b. we need to know what jordan is first
4j=200
divide by 4 both sides
j=50
then
j=7+x
50=7+x
43=x
kim is 43
c. jordan is 50
Let x and y be your two consecutive whole numbers
x < sqrt(142) < y
x^2 < 142 < y
So, we are looking for x and y such that x^2 < 142 and y^2 > 142.
The closest squared number to 142 is 144 = 12^2.
Next is 11^2 = 121.
11 and 12 are consecutive.
11^2 = 121 < 142 < 144 = 12^2
Thus, 11 and 12 are your numbers
