The x, which is zero in this case will always be the number that goes on the inside of the equation, so far you have y=(x+0)^2 or y=x^2.
The y, which is negative will go on the end of the equation. So you get y=x^2-5
The equation is y=x^2-5 or C if it is multiple choice
Answer: x= -9/19
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+18/8=x/4
5x+ 9/4=x/4
5x+9/4-9/4=x/4-9/4
5x= x-9/4
5x(4)=x-9/4(4)
20x=x-9
20x-x=x-9-x
19x=-9
19x/19=-9/19
x=-9/19
The smallest of the four numbers is x.
Since the four numbers are consecutive, this means that each number is one more than the previous.
Therefore, the four numbers are:
x
x + 1
x+1 + 1 = x+2
x+2 + 1 = x+3
Now, we are given that the sum (s) of the four numbers is 2174
This means that:
s = x+x+1+x+2+x+3
s = 4x + 6
We are given that s = 2174. Substitute with s in the above equation and solve for x as follows:
2174 = 4x + 6
4x = 2174 - 6
4x = 2168
x = 2168 / 4
x = 542
Based on the above calculations, the four numbers are:
542, 543, 544 and 555
