Three consecutive odd integers add to −9. What are these integers?

1 answer:

8 0

Let the number be x.

1st number = x
2nd number = x + 2
3rd number = x + 4

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = -9
3x + 6 = -9
3x = -15
x = -5

1st number = x = -5
2nd number = x + 2 = -3
3rd number = x + 4 = -1

Answer: The numbers are -1, -3, and -5

Find the value of each variable so that PQRS is a parallelogram. Explain what allows you to do this.

Nataly [62]

Answer:

$x = 5$

$y = 16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for parallelogram

Required

Find variables x and y

Solving for x, we have:

$5x = 25$ ---- Opposite sides of a parallelogram

$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{25}{5}$ ------ Divide both sides by 5

$x = 5$

Solving for y, we have:

$3y - 1 = 47$ ---- Opposite sides of a parallelogram

$3y = 1 + 47$ ------ Collect like terms

$3y = 48$

$\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{48}{3}$ ---- Divide both sides by 3

$y = 16$
