let two integers be x and y
A.T.Q
x+y= -3
or, x= -3-y(i)
and xy= -18
or,(-3-y)y= -18[by(i)]
or,- -3y-y²= -18
or,-y²= -18+3
or, -y²= -15
or, y²=15
therefore y=✓15
from (i)
x= -3-✓15
y=√15
B would be the answer. hope it helps !
Answer:
61 , 63 , 65 , 67
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the least even number be denoted by x. The sum of the four consecutive even numbers would be:
(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) (x + 6) = 256
First, simplify. Combine all like terms:
x + x + x + x + 2 + 4 + 6 = 256
4x + 12 = 256
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:
4x + 12 (-12) = 256 (-12)
4x = 256 - 12
4x = 144
Next, divide 4 from both sides of the equation:
(4x)/4 = (144)/4
x = 144/4
x = 61
61 is your first number. Find the next 3 consecutive numbers:
x = 61
x + 2 = 63
x + 4 = 65
x + 6 = 67
Check:
61 + 63 + 65 + 67 = 256
256 = 256

Answer:
75 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
1. determine how many pieces per ounce by dividing 45 by 6 (# of pieces in a 6 oz bag)
45/6= 7.5 pieces per ounce
2. multiply 7.5 (for one ounce) by 10
7.5*10 = 75
Answer:
270
Step-by-step explanation:
37 % of a number is the same as divide by 100 and multiply by 37. To get this number we do the opposite: divide 99.9 by 37 which gives us 27 and then multiply by 100 which will give us 270.
if we check this: 270 /100 *37 = 99,9
