2n + 1 , 2n + 3 , 2n + 5

____________________________

( 2n + 5 ) + ( 2n + 3 ) = 5 × ( 2n + 1 ) - 15

4n + 8 = 10n + 5 - 15

4n + 8 = 10n - 10

Add both sides 10

4n + 8 + 10 = 10n - 10 + 10

4n + 18 = 10n

Subtract both sides 4n

4n - 4n + 18 = 10n - 4n

18 = 6n

Divide both sides by 6

18 ÷ 6 = 6n ÷ 6

n = 3

_________________________________

Thus that three numbers are :

2(3) + 1 , 2(3) + 3 , 2(3) + 5

6 + 1 , 6 + 3 , 6 + 5

7 , 9 , 11

And we're done ....

3/4 = what number over 20? Trying to find the Equivalent Fraction
Gnesinka [82]
So you're trying to find what number is like that right? Well multiply the denominator by the 20 (20*4) which equals 100, so 100-20 (the one fourth) is 80. So 3/4 fourths of 100 is 20.

With a full ink cartridge, the printer can print 2,500 pages. The printer cartridge is now 37% full. Which is the best estimate
stira [4]

Answer: 925 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that with a full ink cartridge, a printer can print 2,500 pages but that the printer cartridge is now 37% full.

The best estimate of the number of pages the printer can still print will be calculated as:

= 37% × 2500

= 0.37 × 2500

= 925 pages

PLZZZZ HLPPPPP MEEEEEEEE

Answer: y ≥ (3/5)*x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph, we can see that we are above a bold line, that goes through the points (0, -3) and (5, 0)

First, let's find the equation for this line:

y = a*x + b

the value of a is the slope and is equal to:

a = (0 - (-3))/(5 -0) = 3/5

and the value of b is the point where the line intersects the y-axis, in this case, b = -3

then our line is

y = (3/5)*x - 3

As the shaded part is above the line, this equality represents the minimum value that y can take for a given x, and because the line is not a doted line, we know that the equality is valid, so we must use the ≥ symbol.

y ≥ (3/5)*x - 3

Sharon wants to make a graph to show the relationship between the number of tickets sold and the price of tickets sold. She plot
Masteriza [31]

The statement that best describes the graph is “It will not be spread out across the entire coordinate plane because in Step 3 Sharon plotted the independent variable on the y-axis.”

 

To add, graphing is a powerful tool for representing and interpreting numerical data. In addition, graphs and knowledge of algebra can be used to find the relationship between variables plotted on a scatter chart.
