Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The box  when shipped is 5 pounds

The box alone =                 <u>2 poun</u>ds         Subtract

What's left is                       3 pounds

1 sea turtle weighs            1 pound

3 sea turtles weigh            x

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

-1/21

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 + -5/7

Get a common denominator of 21

2/3 *7/7 = 14/21

-5/7*3/3 = -15/21

14/21 - 15/21 = -1/21

Three consecutive integers have a sum of 56. what are the three integers
denis23 [38]

Answer:

impossible

Step-by-step explanation:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 56. To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract 3 from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. ...

3X + 3 = 56. 3X + 3 - 3 = 56 - 3.

3X = 53. 3X/3 = 53/3.

X = 17 2/3. Since 17 2/3 is not an integer, there is no true answer to this problem.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points? (5,2) and (7,8) the answers are 2/3,-2/3,3/2 or -3/2
Mice21 [21]
Answer:  The slope is:  "3" ; which does not appear among the                                   answer choices given.
______________________________________________

The slope, "m" is calculated as follows:
___________________________________
Given two coordinates on a line; 

m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁) ;
__________________________________________

We are given the following 2 (TWO) coordinates:
__________________________________________
 1)  (5,2) ; which is:  (x₁ ,y₁) ;  so x₁ = 5 ; y₁ = 2 ; AND:
 
 2)  (7,8);  which is:  (x₂ ,y₂) ;  so x₂ = 7; y₂ = 8 ;
_____________________________________________
So;  m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁) = (8−2) /.(7−5) = 6/2 = 3 .

m = 3.  The slope is: 3 ; which does not appear among the answer choices given.
______________________________________________
Alternately,
______________________________________________
We are given the following 2 (TWO) coordinates:
__________________________________________
 1)  (7,8) ; which is:  (x₁ ,y₁) ;  so x₁ = 7 ; y₁ = 8 ; AND:
 
 2)  (5,2);  which is:  (x₂ ,y₂) ;  so x₂ = 5; y₂ = 2 ;
______________________________________________
So;  m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁) = (2−8) / (5−7) = -6/-2 = 3 .

m = 3.  The slope is 3 ; which does not appear among the answer choices given.
