Answer:

\large\boxed{\text{These numbers do not exist}}

Step-by-step explanation:

n,\ n+1,\ n+2-\text{three consecutive integers such}\\\\\text{The equation:}\\\\n+2(n+1)+3(n+2)=76\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\n+2n+2+3n+6=76\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\(n+2n+3n)+(2+6)=76\\\\6n+8=76\qquad\text{subtract 8 from both sides}\\\\6n=68\qquad\text{divide both sides by 6}\\\\n=\dfrac{68}{6}\\\\n=\dfrac{34}{3}\\\\n=11\dfrac{1}{3}\notin\mathbb{Z}

A certain ball is dropped from a height of x feet. It always bounces up to 2/3 x feet. Suppose the ball is dropped from 10 feet
galina1969 [7]

Given that if a ball is dropped from x feet, it bounces up to 2/3 x feet.

And the ball is dropped from 10 feet, that is x=10 feet,

So,before the first bounce it travels 10 feet distance.

Between first and second bounce it travels  \frac{2}{3}* 10 + \frac{2}{3} * 10 = 20*(\frac{2}{3})

Between second and third bounce, it travels 20*(\frac{2}{3})^{2}

Between third and fourth bounce, it travels 20*(\frac{2}{3}) ^{3}

Like that between 29th and 30th bounce, it travels 20*(\frac{2}{3} )^{29}

Hence total distance traveled is

    10+20*(\frac{2}{3} )+20*(\frac{2}{3})^{2} + 20*(\frac{2}{3}) ^{3}+......+20*(\frac{2}{3})^{29}

=10+20[(\frac{2}{3}) +(\frac{2}{3}) ^{2} +(\frac{2}{3}) ^{3} +.....+(\frac{2}{3} )^{29} ]

= 10+20[\frac{\frac{2}{3}*(1-(\frac{2}{3})^{29})  }{1-\frac{2}{3} }]

= 10+20*2*(1-(\frac{2}{3}) ^{29})

= 49.9997 feet ≈ 50 feet approximately.
