Three consecutive odd integers have a sum of 51. what is the smallest integer

Mathematics

nalin [4]2 years ago

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2n+1 be the first odd integer.

Therefore, the consecutive odd integers will be 2n+3 and 2n+5

If the sum of the consecutive odd integers is 51 then:

⇒ 2n + 1 + 2n + 3 + 2n + 5 = 51

⇒ 6n + 9 = 51

⇒ 6n = 42

⇒ n = 7

To find the values of the integers, substitute the found value of n into the expressions:

  • First integer:       2(7) + 1 = 15
  • Second integer:  2(7) + 3 = 17
  • Third integer:      2(7) + 5 = 19

Therefore, the three consecutive odd integers that sum to 51 are <u>15, 17 and 19</u>.  The smallest of which is 15.

To find the mid point add both X coordinates together and divide by 2 and then do the same with the y coordinates.

X coordinate: 4 + -6 = 4-6 = -2 / 2 = -1

Y coordinate: -2 + 3 = 1 / 2 = 1/2


Midpoint: ( -1, 1/2)
