Answer:

11,12,13

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the first number

x+1 is the second number

x+2 is the third number

x+ x+1+x+2 = 36

Combine like terms

3x+3 = 36

Subtract 3 from each side

3x+3-3= 36-3

3x = 33

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 33/3

x = 11

The numbers are 11, 11+1, 11+2

11,12,13

Steven works at the Pi Day food truck and he gets paid $9 per hour x. If 1 point

vitfil [10]

P(x) =9x +30

the tips are a flat rate so it’s a constant 30 while the 9 per hour is dependent on the hours worked which is why it is attached to x as a coefficient

What are the zeros of the function f(x) = (3x^2 + 9x + 6) / (3x - 6) ?

cricket20 [7]

3x^2 + 9x + 6 = 0
3x^2 + 3x + 6x + 6 = 0
3x(x + 1) + 6(x + 1) = 0
(3x + 6)(x + 1) = 0
3x + 6 = 0 and x + 1 = 0
3x = -6 and x = -1
x = -2 and x = -1

PLEASe help 30POINTS<br><br> What is the length of segment AB ?

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

$\sqrt{74}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Distance between two points</u>

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$\textsf{let}\:(x_1,y_1)=(2,-6)$

$\textsf{let}\:(x_2,y_2)=(7,1)$

$d=\textsf{length of segment AB}$

Substituting points into the distance formula and solving for d:

$\implies d=\sqrt{(7-2)^2+(1-(-6))^2}$

$\implies d=\sqrt{5^2+7^2}$

$\implies d=\sqrt{25+49}$

$\implies d=\sqrt{74}$
