8 0

Answer: Let's say the first number is x, the next one is x+1, and so on

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = -51

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -51

3x + 3 = -51

3x = -54

x = -18

Solve the inequality x divided by 6 is less than or equal to 3
Alja [10]
Your inequality looks like this:
\frac{x}{6}  \leq 3
To get rid of the /6, you need to multiply by 6 as the opposite operation cancels it out. So, all you need to do is multiply both sides by 6 to isolate x. 
Therefore:
x \leq 18

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The answer is that the cost will be a total of $142.05. That is $125.80 for Watermelon that weighs 185 lbs and $16.25 for 5 lbs of tomatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Watermelons are .68 / lb and tomatoes are 3.25 / lb.

Let w = watermelon weight and tomato weight.

An equation would be:

.68w + 3.25t = Total cost

For 185 lb of Watermelon and 5 lbs of tomatoes:

.68(185) + 3.25(5) =

$125.80 + $16.25 = $142.05

(Hope this helps. Btw, I am the first to answer!!)

The first hexagon which is 5 is dilated to form the second hexagon which is 6.25
pshichka [43]
ANSWER
Scale factor is 1.25

The dilation is an enlargement.

EXPLANATION

Let the scale factor of the dilation be k, then

5 \times k = 6.25


We divide both sides by 5 to get,


k =  \frac{6.25}{5}


This implies that,

k = 1.25

Since the scale factor is more than one, the dilation is an enlargement.
