The. sum of two consecutive. integers. is 17

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: x+(x+1)=17
So 2x+1=17
Which means 2x=16
Which then means x=8
But you still need the second number, which is x+1, so 8+1=9.
This means that the consecutive numbers are 8 and 9.

Isaiah put a 100 gram weight on a pan balance. how many 10 gram weights does he need to balance the scale

Answers

Isaiah need 10 weight to balance the scale.

What is Division method?

Division method is used to distributing a group of things into equal parts.

Given that;

Isaiah put a 100 gram weight on a pan balance.

Now,

Number of 10 gram weight to balance the scale = 100 ÷ 10

                                                                          = 10

Thus, Isaiah need 10 weight to balance the scale.

Answer=10 10gram weights
10*10grams=100grams
therefore the weight would be even on both sides

Graph the function. f(x)=5*(4/5)^x​

Answers

The function `f(x)=5*(4/5)^x` is an exponential function with a base of 4/5. Exponential functions with a base less than 1 decay, so the graph of this function will approach zero as x increases.

To graph the function, we can start by plotting a few key points. The following table shows some key points for the function `f(x)=5*(4/5)^x`:

| x | f(x) |

|---|---|

| 0 | 5 |

| 1 | 4 |

| 2 | 3.2 |

| 3 | 2.56 |

| 4 | 2.048 |

We can then plot these points on a graph and connect them with a smooth curve.

The graph shows that the function decays exponentially as x increases. The function also approaches zero as x increases.

joseph had a quarter of a cookie. ellen had a half of a different cookie. The peice joseph had was larger. how could ellens peice be smaller? explain.

Answers

My theory is the cookie could be smaller because Ellen's cookie might have been smaller as a full than Joseph's. 

For example, Joseph's cookie may have 24 pieces, while Ellen's cookie may have been 4 pieces.
The Cookie that joseph was eating was larger. Half of a small cookie is smaller than a quarter of a larger cookie.
