Did You Figure This Out I Need Help Too. Lol
Consecutive integers are 1 apart
x,x+1,x+2
(x)(x+1)(x+2)=-120
x^3+3x^2+3x=-120
add 120 to both sides
x^3+3x^2+3x+120=0
factor
(x+6)(x^2-3x+20)=0
set each to zero
x+6=0
x=-6
x^2-3x+20=0
will yeild non-real result, discard
x=-6
x+1=-5
x+2=-4
the numbers are -4,-5,-6
use trial and error and logic
factor 120
120=2*2*2*3*5
how can we rearange these numbers in (x)(y)(z) format such that they multiply to 120?
obviously, the 5 has to stay since 2*5=10 which is out of range
so 2*2*2*3 has to arrange to get 3,4 or 4, 6 or 6,7
obviously, 7 cannot happen since it is prime
3 and 4 results in in 12, but 2*2*2*3=24
therfor answer is 4 and 6
they are all negative since negaive cancel except 1
the numbers are -4,-5,-6
Given:
Triangles ABC and DEF are similar triangles.
AB = 6 m, BC = 16 m, CA = 15 m, DE = x, EF = 32 m, FD = y
To find:
The values of unknown sides, i.e., x and y.
Solution:
We know that the corresponding parts of similar triangles are proportional and triangles ABC and DEF are similar triangles, so
Now,
Similarly,
Therefore, the measure of unknown sides are x = 12 m and y = 30 m.
Answer:
slope = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
recall that the equation of a line can be expressed as:
y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
in our case we are given y = 3
which can be re-written:
y = (0)x + 3
if we compare this with the general equation above, we can see that
slope = m = 0
