Answer:
set middle number=x
then left side number=x-1
and right side number=x+1
(x-1)+x+(x+1)＝30
3x=30
x=10
x-1=9
x+1=11
numbers are 9,10,11
Answer:
B. The student did not properly apply the addition property to isolate x
Explanation:
When given an equation to solve, always remember that when you do an external operation (add/subtract/multiply a term or divide by a term) on one side of the equation, the same operation should be applied on the other side in order to maintain the equality of the equation.
Now, let's take a look on the steps done:
Step 1:
3 = 2 - x
Step 2:
3 = 2 - 2 - x
Step 3:
3 = -x
Now, note n step 2, the student wanted to get rid of the 2 next to the x, therefore, he subtracted 2. However, the student did not subtract the 2 from the other side of the equation. Since we're taking addition (we're adding a -2), therefore, the student incorrectly applied the addition property to isolate the x.
The correct steps would be as follows:
Step 1:
3 = 2 - x
Step 2:
3 - 2 = 2 - 2 - x
Step 3:
1 = - x
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
2%
Step-by-step explanation:
28/140=0.2
Coefficient of 14x is 14
Coefficientis the number in front of the letter. For example, coeffient of 2b is 2. When there is no number in front of the letter the coefficient is 1.
Answer:
Y=K×X...... equation
When,Y=8 and X=-5
To find the constant (K)
we substitute for K in the equation
8=K×-5
8=-5K divide both sides by -5
8÷-5=-5K÷-5
K=-1.6
