Question: Simplify

.
First off, you <em>never</em> want square roots on the bottom of a fraction, so let's multiply both sides by

to get rid of it. All we have to do from there is simplify!
Answer:
First Integer = 16
Second Integer = 18
Third integer = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
An even integer is represented by 2n
Where n is any integer
Let :
First Integer = 2n - 2
Second Integer = 2n
Third integer = 2n + 2
The sum of three even consecutive numbers = 2n - 2 + 2n + 2n + 2
= 2n + 2n + 2n - 2 + 2 = 54
= 6n = 54
n = 54/6
n = 9
First Integer = 2n - 2 = 2(9) - 2
= 16
Second Integer = 2n = 2(9)
= 18
Third integer = 2n + 2 = 2(9) + 2
= 20
Let’s say it takes time t hours for the interception.
In that time the carrier travels 28t nm west and the helicopter 130t nm.
Now we use the sine rule to find the angle x which lies between the distance 175 and 130t.
sin(x)/28t=sin35/130t. So sin(x)=28sin35/130=14sin35/65=0.1235 and x=7.0964 degrees.
Therefore the helicopter should use a bearing of 35+7.0964=42.0964 degrees north of east or 47.9 degrees east of north approx.
I’m pretty sure you just solve exactly like that
-7(-2)-1 =13 at least I’m told that \_( •-• )_/
