Answer: 102

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be a, a+2 and a+4. Since the sum of three consecutive even numbers is 312, this will be:

a + a+2 + a+4 = 312

3a + 6 = 312

3a = 312 - 6

3a = 306

a= 306/3

a = 102

Therefore, the smallest number is 102.

Other numbers are 104 and 106.

a shipping company charged $15 to ship a package and 5% to ensure the package what was total cost to ship this
postnew [5]

Answer:

15.75

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know 5% is 1/20 out of 100 (20x5=100) so then we need to set up the equation to find how much 5% of 15 is. Which is .75 cents. So we then add the 75 cents to the already $15 shipping fee to get an answer of 15 dollars and seventy five cents.

Does a=7 make 7a= 56? <br> btw I hate math I am bad at it but I am good with other stuff
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

No, 7a does not equal 56. If a = 7, then 7a would equal 7 * 7. And, 7 * 7 = 49.
