Answer:

15, 17, 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Three consecutive odd integers can be represented by

x,  x + 2,  x + 4.  You add 2 to each one to get the next one. Fun fact: you would do the same thing if the problem said the integers were even!

The largest integer is x + 4, so the sentence in the problem translates to an equation (sum means to add the integers together):

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 2(x + 4) + 13

Distribute the 2, then combine like terms.

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 2x + 8 + 13

3x + 6 = 2x + 21

Subtract 2x.

x + 6 = 21

Subtract 6.

x = 15

The integers requested are 15, 17, 19.

Check:  Their sum is 51, which is 13 more than twice 19.

3) If you can buy one package of shallots for<br> $4, then how many can you buy with $12?
Olin [163]

Answer:

3.

Step-by-step explanation:

4$ = 1 pack

(think: what times 4 is 12? 3! so we need to muliply both sides of the equal sign by 3, so we can turn the 4 into a 12. Remember, what you do to on side, you must do to the other. )

4$ = 1 pack

*3  *3

12$ = 3 packs

so your answer is 3.

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The discrete data can be number of legs, number of teeth.

The continuous data can be the length of tail, and the height of dog.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The discrete data is a data whose value is obtained by counting and they can be described by an integer value.

So, the discrete data can be number of legs, number of teeth.

A continuous data is a variable whose value is obtained by measuring.

The continuous data can be the length of tail, and the height of dog.
