Answer:
a) 4(t - r) = 4(6 - 2.5) = 4 x 3.5 = 14
b) 4t - r = (4 x 6) - 2.5 = 24 - 2.5 = 21.5
c) 2(3t - 10) = 2(3 x 6 - 10) = 2(18 - 10) = 2 x 8 = 16
d) (t - 2)² = (6 - 2)² = 4² = 4 x 4 = 16
e) cannot decipher the equation
f) 6r + t = 6 x 2.5 + 6 = 15 + 6 = 21
1st piece = x
2nd piece = x+2
3rd piece = x+2+3 = x+5
37 = x +x+2 + x+5 =
37 = 3x+7
30=3x
x = 30/3 = 10
1st piece = 10 inches
2nd piece = 10+2 = 12 inches
3rd piece = 10+5 = 15 inches
Answer:
There is no solution to this equation that is an integer for x.
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the first integer, and x+1 the second
