Answer: 92, 93, and 94

Step-by-step explanation: The problem is asking us to find three consecutive integers that have a sum of 279. Three consecutive integers can be represented as followed.

X ⇒ <em>first integer</em>

X + 1 ⇒ <em>second integer</em>

X + 2 ⇒ <em>third integer</em>

<em />

Since the sum of our three consecutive integers is 279, we can set up an equation to represent this.

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 279

We can simplify on the left side of the equation.

3x + 3 = 279

      -3     -3   ← subtract 3 on both sides

3x = 276

÷3     ÷3   ← divide both sides by 3

X → 92

X + 1 → 93

X + 2 → 94

Therefore, our three consecutive integers are 92, 93, and 94.

Answer:

92, 93, 94

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose,

Three consecutive integers would be x, (x+1), (x+2)

so,

x + (x+1) +  (x+2) = 279

⇒ x+x+1+x+2= 279

⇒3x+3 = 279

subtract 3 from both sides

⇒3x = 276  

divide both sides by 3

⇒x =276/3

∴x = 92

so,

The integers are-

  • x=92
  • x+1 =92+1 =93
  • x+2 = 92+1=94

A trellis consists of overlapping wooden slats.
mars1129 [50]

The value of x  in order for the two slats to be parallel is 6.

The measure of the indicated angle is 42°

What is an angle?

The angle is the measure of how inclined are the two surfaces, or lines with respect to each other.

For the slats to be parallel. both the given angles must be equal

So,

(3x +24)° = 7x°

Solving this expression, we get

7x -3x = 24

4x =24

x = 6°

The measure of the indicated angle is

(3x +24)° = 3x6 +24

(3x +24)° = 18+24

(3x +24)°  =42°

and 7x = 7x6 =42°

Thus, the measure of the angle is 42°

There wegens ales and red apples instag Fyou pick one apple without looking the probability that the apple is greencaragaatiyars
Verdich [7]

Let:

A = Pick a green apple

B = Pick a red apple

m = Number of favourable outcomes

n = Total number of outcomes

The probability that the apple is green is:

P(A)=\frac{m}{n}=\frac{4}{4+6}=\frac{4}{10}=\frac{2}{5}

Answer:

2/5

The probability that the apple is red is:

P(B)=\frac{6}{4+6}=\frac{6}{10}=\frac{3}{5}

Answer:

3/5

A job can be done by 30 men in 15 days. How long would it take 10 men to do the same job?​
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

This questions involves ratios, the job with 30 men can be done in 15 days, so the ratio from amount of men to amount of days the job will take to complete, it is 30:15. If we had 10 men instead of 30, 10 is one-third of 30, so you have to divide by 3 on each side of the ratio to get your answer.

If we do that we get the ratio 10:5.

Meaning that the 5 is the amount of days needed to be taken in order the complete the job.

Hope this helps!
