consecutive integers have a difference of 1 between them
let the brothers have ages n , n + 1 and n + 2 thus
n + n + 1 + n + 2 = 96
3n + 3 = 96
subtract 3 from both sides of the equation
3n = 96 - 3 = 93
divide both sides by 3
n = 
= 31
The ages are 31 , 32 and 33

Answer:
70 cans of paint
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told in the question that:
1 box holds = 14 cans of paint
5 boxes =
Cross Multiplying
5 boxes will hold = 5 × 14
= 70 cans of paint
This question, requires that we use Distributive property
Distributive property states that: when 2 factors or numbers are multiplied together the result will be the same as splitting on of the numbers(factors) into two distinct numbers, multiplying both number by the other factor, and adding together both products.
Applying the definition above to solve the question, we would be splitting the number of boxes which is 5 into 2 distinct number = 2 and 3
As , 2 + 3 = 5
Hence, we have:
14 × 5 = 14( 2 + 3)
70 = 28 + 42
70 cans of paint = 70 cans of paint.
The numbers of cans of paint that are in the art supply closet is 70 cans of paint
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
|-9-8|
Solve what is inside the absolute value
|-17|
Then take the non negative result
17
So, we know that the internal angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, yes?
60 degrees plus 50 degrees equals 110 degrees, and subtract 110 from 180, and you get 70 degrees for angle y.
Now, if the triangles are congruent (identical) and the shape you are describing is like an hourglass, then because of the vertical angles theorem, angle x should be 70 degrees too!
Hope I helped!! :)
