Answer:

-39+5(-41)=244

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider 3 consecutive integers: (smallest) x, x+1 and x+2 (largest)

Five times the smallest means 5x

Sum of the largest and five times the smallest means x+2+5x

This sum is -244 means x+2+5x=-244

Solve this equation

x+2+5x=-244

6x+2=-244

6x=-244-2

6x=-246

x=-41

So, smallest number is -41, second is -40 and largest is -39

= -39+5(-41)=244

Hope this helps, have a nice day/night! :D

50 written as a product of its prime fac tors

Maru [420]

Start by identifying any factor of 50 and then rewriting 50 to include that one factor and another:

50 = 5 * 10 5 is prime, but 10 is not. Thus, factor 10:

50 = 5 * 5 * 2 This is 50 as a product of its prime factors 5, 5 and 2.

How would I solve this?

zvonat [6]

Use Pythagorean Theorem which states that in a right triangle:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$ , where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse.

$24^2+10^2=x^2$

Take the square root of both sides to solve for x.

$x = \sqrt{676} = 26$

The answer is 26.

What is the solution to the equation 5x = 40?

Dima020 [189]

To find X, we can divide 5 into 40.
40 divided by 5 is 8.
Now we can do 5 x 8. That is 40.

X=40

OR we can do it another way.
40 divided by 5 is 8.
Cross out 5 divided by 5.

Now we have 8. Still.
X is 8
