Question 238523: There lot of questions:
1. find four consecutive odd numbers such that four times the second is decrteased by twice the fourth is 78.
2. one number is 5 more than the other. if five times the larger divided by the smaller, the queotient is 10. find the two numbers.
3. find three consecutive odd integers such that one-fourth the sum of the first and third is equal to 22 less than the second.
thnx po Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! BIG TIP: Post one question at a time or else your questions will be ignored.
Here are the four consecutive odd numbers.
x
x + 2
x + 4
x + 6
four times the second is decreased by twice the fourth is written
4(x + 2) - 2(x + 6)
Here is your equation:
x + 4(x + 2) - 2(x + 6) + x + 4 = 78
Can you solve for x now?
After solving for x, plug your value for x into the four consecutive numbers given above and simplify.
