Answer:
Given that x=5, when we substitute in 5 for 2x + 3 = 13, the equation will turn out to be true.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3 = 13 x=5
2(5)+3=13
10+3=13
13=13
A good way to find the answer to these questions is to find it algebraically. Let's call the first number 'n'.
n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 54
3n + 6 = 54
3n = 48
n = 16
Therefore the numbers are 16, 18, 20
Say the cube has sides numbered 1-6 that means there are 6 possible outcomes. 3 and 4 are only two possible outcomes so the probability of that is 2:6. Simply 1:3 or 33%
Simplifying makes a algebric expression easily understandable and solvable.
