So I’m going to solve this using algebra OK?
So what you do is take the first integer as X.
Then we know that x(the first number) + X+2(the second number) is 288 right?
So we solve that saying x+x+2=288.
So 2X+2=288
2X+2-2=288-2 right?
So 2X=286.
So x is 286/2 right?
So x is 143.
Now the first number is 143 right?
So the second number should be 143+2 so 145.
I know they are not even but these are the solutions.
I don’t think there are any consecutive even numbers that add up to 288
Answer:
There are 8 dimes there.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved used a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the number of nickels.
y is the number of dimes.
19 coins
This means that x + y = 19.
A nickel is worth $0.05. A dime is worth $0.1. The total of these coins is $1.35. So
0.05x + 0.1y = 1.35
How many dimes are there?
We have to find y.
From the first equation: x = 19 - y.
Replacing in the second:
0.05(19 - y) + 0.1y = 1.35
0.95 - 0.05y + 0.1y = 1.35
0.05y = 0.4
y = 0.4/0.05
y = 8
There are 8 dimes there.
Answer:
7 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply count the units between A and B :)
So the equation looks like this : 15*3x=78
subtract 15 from both sides: -15 -15
then divide by 3 from both sides
to isolate the variable: 3x=63
3/3x=63/3
x=21 (your mystery number is 21)
