N = first integer
n + 1 = second integer
n + 2 = third
n + 3 = fourth
the sum is 114 so:
n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + (n + 3) = 114
solve:
4n + 6 = 114
4n = 108
n = 27
so 27 is your first.
27 + 1 is your second (remember n +1 n +2 and n +3)
so your first four integers are: 27 28 29 and 30
(I'll also help with one)
week one: x
week two: x + 5
week three: 2(x+5) or 2x + 10
week1 + 2 + 3 = 431
so its:
x + (x+5) + (2x + 10)
4x + 15 = 431
4x = 416
x = 104
its then:
week one: 104 sold
week two: 109 sold (x + 5)
<span>week three: 218 (2x + 10)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set it up like this:
Multiply both sides by
We are then going to use the distributive property. Since we also know that the opposite of an number that is squared is the square root, we can also apply that. We would be left with something like this:
The variable
can be both positive or negative.
