Answer:

The three consecutive integers are 42,44 and 46

Step-by-step explanation:

n-2 n and n+2. n=44

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 132

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 132

3X + 3 = 132

3X + 3 - 3 = 132 - 3

3X = 129

3X/3 = 129/3

X = 43

43 + 44 + 45 = 132

Someone plz help me 1-1\2c=6

GarryVolchara [31]

1 - 1/2c = 6

1 -1 - 1/2c = 6 -1 (subtract 1 on both sides)

-1/2c = 5 (next do the inverse operation)

c = 5 ÷ 1/2

c = -10

to check your answer substitute the value of c in the equation;

1- 1/2c = 6

1- 1/2(-10) = 6

1 + 5 = 6

6 =6

Which ordered pair (a,b) is a solution to the given system of linear equations.

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

A. (-13,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}-2a+3b=14\\a-4b=3\end{array}\right.$

From the second equation:

$a=3+4b$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$-2(3+4b)+3b=14\\ \\-6-8b+3b=14\\ \\-8b+3b=14+6\\ \\-5b=20\\ \\5b=-20\\ \\b=-4$

So,

$a=3+4b=3+4\cdot (-4)=3-16=-13$

The solution is (-13,-4)
