Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Im pretty sure its 21, add them up, divide them by how many numbers there are and turn it positive. If helpful please give me brainiest? :>
Multiply both side by 9
x-y=9M
add x to both sides
-y = 9M+x
divide by negative one to change the -y to y
y = -9M-x
Answer is y = -9M-x
The value of the greater integer is 9
<h3>How to determine the value of the greater integer?</h3>
From the question, the statement is given as
<em>An integer is subtracted from 5 times the next consecutive odd integer, the difference is 38</em>
<em />
Represent the integer with x
So, we have the following representation
x is subtracted from 5 times the (x + 2), the difference is 38
When represented as an equation, we have
5(x + 2) -x = 38
Open the brackets
5x + 10 - x = 38
Evaluate the like terms
4x = 28
Divide by 4
x = 7
The next odd integer is x + 2
So, we have
x + 2 = 7 + 2
Evaluate
x + 2 = 9
Hence, the solution is 9
