Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The easy way to set this up is to make the smallest number x - 1. You will see why in a moment. It cuts down on one step)

Equation

(x - 1) + x + (x + 1) = 96                Remove the brackets

Solution

x - 1 + x + x + 1 = 96                   Combine like terms

3x = 96                                       Divide by 3

x = 32

Note: that is not the smallest number. Remember, the smallest number is x - 1

So the smallest number is 31

Solve the simultaneous equation<br> 4x-y=9 <br> 2x-3y= -23
MrMuchimi

Answer:

x = 5

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x - 9

2x -3(4x - 9) = -23

2x - 12x + 27 = -23

-10x = -23 -27

-10x = -50

minus cancels out

x = 5

y = 4(5) -9

y = 20 - 9

y = 11

Find the slope of the line that passes through Point A $$(​−5,7) and Point B $$(2,5), using the formula $$m=
tester [92]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{2}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, 7 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 5 )

m = \frac{5-7}{2-(-5)} = \frac{-2}{2+5} = - \frac{2}{7}
