The consecutive integers are i, i+1, i+2, i+3.
3 less than sum of the integers
= i + i +1 + i + 2 + i + 3 - 3 = 4i + 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 3 + 3x - 1 = 3x + 8
6x + 2 = 3x + 8
3x + 2 = 8
3x = 6
x = 2
HJ= 3(2) + 8 =6 + 8 = 14
HI= 3(2) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5
IJ = 3(2) + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9
Combine like terms and then simplify
Answer:
A bag of chips costs $1
A pickle costs $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
P + 2c = 3.25 Start with these two equations
3p + 4c = 7.25
p = -2c + 3.25 Solve for one variable
3(-2c +3.25) + 4c = 7.25 Substitute
-6c + 9.75 + 4c = 7.25
-2c = -2
c = 1
p + 2(1) = 3.25 Substitute
p + 2 = 3.25
p = 1.25
