Answer:
The original number could be 85.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 2 digits be x and y.
Let the number be xy then, assuming that x is the larger digit:
x - y = 3.
x = y + 3
Also
10y + x + 10x + y = 143
Substituting for x:
10y + y + 3 + 10(y + 3) + y = 143
22y + 33 = 143
22y = 110
y = 5.
So x = y + 3 = 8.
Answer:
Ok, so I say that the answer is 100
Answer:
A skydiving company insists that its customers weigh at least 130 pounds, but no more than 280 pounds, including parachute and other gear. If the total weight of all gear is 25 pounds, write and solve a compound inequality that represents the weight range without gear that is acceptable.
105 ≤ x ≤ 255
think this is what you meant . . .
Answer:
- using the rule given: 2.5
- using an exponential rule: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5
_____
We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...
an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)
Then, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7
_____
When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.
5x(4x^3 + 3x - 2)
There’s a 5 and a x common.
