Goryan [66]4 years ago

Answer:

12, 13, 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Three consecutive numbers means three numbers in a row, so if n is the first number, the second number is one more than  n (which is n+1) and the third number is one more than that (which is n+2)

So three times (3 x) the first number (n) is equal to (=) nine more than (9 +) the sum of the other two ( (n+1) + (n+2) )

3 times n can be written as 3n

So 3n = 9 + (n+1) + (n+2)

3n = 9 + n + 1 + n + 2

3n = 9 + 1 + 2 + n + n

3n = 12 + 2n

Subtract 2n from each side

3n - 2n = 12 + 2n - 2n

1n = 12

n = 12

So the first number is 12, the second number is 12 + 1 (13) and the third number is 12 + 2 (14)

The numbers are 12, 13, 14

Hope this helps :)

Find the center of the circle (x-2)^2+(y-8)^2=33
enyata [817]

Answer:

The center is (2,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is written as

(x-h)^2+ (y-k)^2 = r^2

where ( h,k) is the center and r is the radius

(x-2)^2+(y-8)^2=33

The center is (2,8) and the radius is sqrt(33)

Complete each of the ratios on the table show calculations
arsen [322]

Answer:

From left to right:

2, 4, 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the one column which is completed, determine the ratio of yellow to blue by reducing to lowest terms.

yellow to blue = 8 to 16

8 and 16 are both divisible by 8. 8/8 = 1 and 16/8 = 2

8 to 16 = 1 to 2

This means there is half as much yellow paint as there is blue paint. If said backwards, there is double the amount of blue paint as there is yellow paint.

In the first two columns, yellow paint is blue paint divided by 2.

4/2 = 2

8/2 = 4

In the last column, blue paint is yellow paint times 2.

16 X 2= 32

All of the ratios yellow to blue are:

2 to 4

4 to 8

8 to 16

16 to 32
