1st number = n
2nd number = n+1
3rd number = n+2
sum of the squares of 3 consecutive numbers is 116
n² + (n+1)² + (n+2)² = 116
n² + (n+1)(n+1) + (n+2)(n+2) = 116
n² + [n(n+1)+1(n+1)] + [n(n+2)+2(n+2)] = 116
n² + n² + n + n + 1 + n² + 2n + 2n + 4 = 116
n² + n² + n² + n + n + 2n + 2n + 1 + 4 = 116
3n² + 6n + 5 = 116 Last option.
Answer:
18 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The centroid is located 1/3 the distance from the midpoint of a side to the opposite vertex. That means ...
CG = 2·DG = 6 + DG
Then
DG = 6 . . . . . . subtract DG from the above equation
Of course, ...
CD = CG +DG = 2·6 +6
CD = 18
Answer:
-3.8
Step-by-step explanation:
u = 3.8
u × -1 = 3.8 × -1
-u = -3.8
Answer:
5676.16 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of any prism is given by the formula ...
V = Bh
where B is the area of one of the parallel bases and h is the perpendicular distance between them. Here, the base is a triangle, so its area will be ...
B = 1/2·bh
where the b and h in this formula are the base and height of the triangle, 28 cm and 22.4 cm.
Then the volume is ...
V = (1/2·(28 cm)(22.4 cm))·(18.1 cm) = 5676.16 cm^3
_____
You will note that this is half the product of the three dimensions, so is half the volume of a cuboid with those dimensions. Perhaps you can see that if you took another such prism and placed the faces having the largest area against each other, you would have a cuboid of the dimensions shown.
