Let's say the first number is "a"
the next consecutive can just be "a+1" and the next, you guessed it, "a+2"
the two smaller ones are a and a+1, the larger one is a+2
now, the product of "a" and "a+1" equals 5 times "a+2" but less by 5
thus a(a + 1) = 5(a + 2) - 5 <----- solve for "a"
-the equation is a quadratic
-the axis of symmetry is x=-7
-the graph has a relative maximum
Answer:
1:144
Step-by-step explanation:
if each floor is 15 feet, the whole building is 60 feet tall. so it does have a scale of 5 inches:60 feet but if you simplify that, its 1 inch: 12 feet, so you convert feet into inches by multiplying by twelve, which gives you a scale of 1:144 inches
