If x is the first of the integers then the statement is:
(x) , (x+2) , (x+4) , (x+6)
This means that the smallest is x and the largest is x + 6
so:
3(x) + 2(x+6) = 293
3x + 2x + 12 = 293
5x = 281
x = 56.2
This gives us a none integer (decimal)
What now?
Wait remember how x started as the lowest? what if x was the highest instead?
x, x-2, x-4, x-6
so:
3(x-6) + 2(x) = 293
5x = 315
x = 62.2
This is as close as have gotten to the answer
Cant seem to get an integer.
Maybe error in the question or some bad math on my part.
The answer is 104ft ( Ask for work if you need to)
Answer: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Both lines are being cut by the same transversal so to solve for x, make both equations equal to each other
2x+10 = 3x-15
To isolate x, do the inverse operations (for any side chosen)
Do the inverse operations to move -15 and isolate 3x
Add 15 to 10 (10+15=25)
You now have 2x+25=3x
Now, do the same to combine the x values together
25=3x-2x
You now have 25=1x
Divide by 1 on both sides
25=x
A. The equation is true.
67+33=100
70+30=100
100=100 so yes, the equation is equal.
