The sum of three consecutive intergers is 189 what are the integers

Mathematics
1 answer:
lesya [120]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  62, 63, 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle integer of three consecutive integers will be the average of them. That is, it will be their sum, divided by 3.

__

The middle integer is 189/3 = 63.

The three consecutive integers are 62, 63, 64.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you'd like to write an equation that tells you the same thing, let x represent the middle integer. Then the lower one is x-1, and the upper one is x+1. Their sum is ...

  (x-1) +x +(x+1) = 189

  3x = 189 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  x = 189/3 = 63 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

  (x-1) = 63-1 = 62 . . . . . . find the other two integers

  (x+1) = 63+1 = 64

What two positive real numbers whose product is 50 have the smallest possible sum?
Llana [10]
X * y = 50
y = 50 / x
S = x + y = x + 50 / x
S` = 1 - 50 / x²
1 - 50 / x² = 0
50 / x² = 1
x² = 50
x = √ 50 = 5 √2
y = 50 / 5√2 = 5 √2
Answer:
Those numbers are: x = 5√2 and y = 5√2.

Elijah trained dolphins all summer and put $5,000 of his earnings into a
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:(a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Principal amount P=\$ 5000

Rate of interest R=3.5\ \%

Time T=5\ years

Simple interest in 5 years

S.I.=\dfrac{P\times R\times T}{100}

S.I.=\dfrac{5000\times 3.5\times 5}{100}

S.I.=875\ \$

So total amount after five years=5000+875=\$ \ 5875

In the diagram m ∠ 3 = x + 30 and m ∠ 4 = 2x - 80. What is the measure of angle 3?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

140 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to ∠3 and ∠4 being vertical angles (they are across from one another) their measures are the same, therefore:

⇒ m∠3=m∠4

and since their measures are given in terms of x to find x just substitute:

⇒ x+30=2x-80 ⇒ x=110

We substitute x in m∠3=x+30 and find that m∠3=140 degrees
