Cross multiply
20(x+1)=14(x-1)
20x+20=14x-14
Subtract 14x on each side giving you
6x+20=-14
Subtract 20 on each side giving you
6x=-34
x=-34/6. Simplifying that you get x=-17/3. I hope this helps!!!
Answer:
k-n+1
Step-by-step explanation:
How many numbers are written from n to k
Lets look at a smaller example with real number
Lets go from 3 to 8
3 4 5 6 7 8
There are 6 numbers
We take 8 -3 = 5, but we include the number 3 so we add it back in +1
5+1 =6
Lets look at a larger example
2 to 11
2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11
There are 10 numbers
11-2 =9 but we have to add back in the first number
9+1 =10
Now we are going from n to k
k-n = k-n, but we have to add back in the first number
k-n+1
Answer:
<h2>45, 46, 47</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
n, n + 1, n + 2 - three consecutive integers
The equation:
138 - n = (n + 1) + (n + 2)
138 - n = n + 1 + n + 2 <em>combile like terms</em>
138 - n = 2n + 3 <em>subtract 138 from both sides</em>
-n = 2n - 135 <em>subtract 2n from both sides</em>
-3n = -135 <em>divide both sides by (-3)</em>
n = 45
n + 1 = 46
n + 2 = 47
The evaluation of 11/7 is 1 4/7, realy hope this helps.
