x = points in first game
y = points in second game
6x=y to make them equal multiply the first games points by 6
x+y=35 the points in both games
x +6x = 35 substitute for y (y=6x)
7x=35 combine like terms
x=5
y=6x
y=6(5)
y=30 points
The rope would be 3 yards long because every 3 feet is equal to 1 yard
Answer: ( D) 998 is the greatest three digit positive integer
Step-by-step explanation: Your welcome.
Let one integer be x, the consecutive odd integer is x+2
reciprocals are 1/x and 1/(x+2)
1/x +1/(x+2)=24/143
make the denominators the same:
(x+2)/[x(x+2)] +x/[x(x+2)]=24/143
143(2x+2)=24(x)(x+2)
286x+286=24x²+48x
24x²-238x-286=0
use the quadratic formula: x=22 this doesn't work because 22 is not an odd number.
or x=-2.1666666666 (this is not an integer)
weird.
