Let the first of the three odd consecutive integers be x, so that the second of these integers would be x + 2, and the third one would be x + 4. We have: 3x = 2[(x + 2)+ (x + 4)] + 3 3x = 2(2x + 6) +3 3x = 4x + 12 + 3 (subtract 4x to both sides) -x = 15 (multiply by -1 to both sides) x = -15 (the first one) So the integers are -15, -13, and -11. The average of those integers is (-15 + -13 + -11)/2 = -39/2 = -19.5.
2x + 22 = x Subtract x from both sides: x + 22 = 0 Subtract 22 from both sides: x = -22
There are 18, but only 7 primitive ones. The rest are similar to the primitive triangles : for example (15, 50, 25) is similar to (3, 4, 5).
First you subtract 3x from both sides and get -7=2x+3. Then subtract 3 from both sides and get -10=2x. Then divide both sides by 2 and x=-5.
70 = 81-n subtract 70 from both sides 0 = 11 - n subtract 11 from both sides -11 = -n divide both sides by -1 11 = n
Let x be the smallest of the consecutive odd integers. Since consecutive odd integers differ by 2, we havex + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = -2204x + 12 = -220 (subtract 12 to both sides)4x = -232 (divide by 4 to both sides)x = -58Thus, the four consecutive odd integers whose sum is -220 are -58, -56, -54, and -52.
Algebraically, X = integers. X + (X + 1) = 237 gather all terms on the left 2X + 1 = 237 subtract 1 from each side 2X = 236 divide both sides integers by 2 X = 118 --------------so, X + 1 = 119 ----------------so, The two consecutive integers that = 237 are 118 and 119 -------------------
That is the correct spelling of "scalene" (in one sense a triangle with three dissimilar sides).
Yes. When you subtract two, you get two congruent sides.
Let the odd integers be , n, n+2 & n+4 Hence n + (n+2) + (n +4) = 471 Add LHS 3n + 6 = 471 Subtract '6' from both sides 3n = 465 Divide both sides by '3' n = 155 n + 2 = 157 n + 4 = 159 Hence the integers are 155,157 & 159.
9Y + 4 = 2Y + 25 subtract 2Y from both sides 7Y + 4 = 25 subtract 4 from both sides 7Y = 21 divide both sides integers by 7 (7/7)Y = 21/7 Y = 3 -----------------check in original equation 9(3) + 4 = 2(3) + 25 27 + 4 = 6 + 25 31 = 31 ---------------checks

5x + 36 = x Subtract x from both sides: 4x + 36 = 0 Subtract 36 from both sides: 4x = -36 Divide both sides by 4: x = -9
