Answer:

18, 19, 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can have the lowest number be $x$ , and the second and third numbers be $x+1$ and $x+2$ . Now we have the equation $x+x+1+x+2=x+39.$

$3x+3=x+39\\\\2x=36.$

x=18, so the numbers are 18, 19, and 20.

The spinner shown is divided into 8 equal sections. What is the probability that the arrow will land on a section labeled with a

Oxana [17]

The probability of the arrow will land on a section labeled with the number greater than 3 is $\frac{5}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The spinner is divided into 8 sections say named 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

To find the P : probability of the arrow will land on a section labeled with the number greater than 3

Formula

<u>P = (the number of possible outcomes) ÷ ( the number of total result)</u>

We will count the probability when the arrow land on either 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 = 5 times

Total number of result = 8

Hence the probability = $\frac{5}{8}$

Help me please with this question please .

miss Akunina [59]

If we split this shape into 2 rectangles, we have 2 rectangles that each measure 10m x 20m x 200cm. 200 cm = 2 m. Volume is found by multiplying length times width times height. We have 2 shapes so we will have 2 volumes that we will add together to get a total volume. 10*20*2=400 m cubed. Two of those is 800 m cubed.
