The sum of three consecutive odd number is one hundred fifty-nine. what is the smallest of the three numbers?

1 answer:

4 0

Let “n” represent the least of the odd numbers. Then the next two will be:
n + 2 and n + 4 that their sum is 159.

n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 159

3n + 6 = 159

3n = 153

n = 51

And to check: 51 + 53 + 55 = 159

If (2 − 3i) + (x + yi) = 6, what is x + yi? 4 + 3i 4 − 3i -4 − 3i -4 + 3i 4x + 3i

Jobisdone [24]

<span>If (2 − 3i) + (x + yi) = 6, to get x + yi we subtract (2-3i) from both sides of the equation.

</span>(2 − 3i) + (x + yi) - (2 − 3i) = 6 -(2 − 3i)
(x + yi) = 6 - (2 - 3i)
Open the parenthesis taking care of the signs
(x + yi) = 6 - (2 - 3i)
= 6 - 2 + 3i
= 4 + 3i
