Answer:
k = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for k:
-7 k - 44 = k + 12
Subtract k from both sides:
(-7 k - k) - 44 = (k - k) + 12
-7 k - k = -8 k:
-8 k - 44 = (k - k) + 12
k - k = 0:
-8 k - 44 = 12
Add 44 to both sides:
(44 - 44) - 8 k = 44 + 12
44 - 44 = 0:
-8 k = 12 + 44
12 + 44 = 56:
-8 k = 56
Divide both sides of -8 k = 56 by -8:
(-8 k)/(-8) = 56/(-8)
(-8)/(-8) = 1:
k = 56/(-8)
The gcd of 56 and -8 is 8, so 56/(-8) = (8×7)/(8 (-1)) = 8/8×7/(-1) = 7/(-1):
k = 7/(-1)
Multiply numerator and denominator of 7/(-1) by -1:
Answer: k = -7
X= 1st integer
x+2= 2nd integer
x+4= 3rd integer
Add the integers together
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)= 279
combine like terms
3x + 6= 279
subtract 6 from both sides
3x= 273
divide both sides by 3
x= 91 first integer
Substitute x=91 to find 2nd & 3rd integers
2nd Integer
=x+2
=91+2
=93
3rd Integer
=x+4
=91+4
=95
ANSWER: The three test scores are 91, 93 and 95.
Hope this helps! :)
I think it is B because he
we are given with an isosceles triangle with two congruent sides equal to 70 inches and an angle of 36 degrees in between the sides. We are asked for the area of the triangle. The formula is A = 0.5 * ab sin theta where a and b are the sides. The area is equal to 1440. 07 in2.
