X= 1st integer
x+2= 2nd integer
x+4= 3rd integer

Add the integers together

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)= 279
combine like terms
3x + 6= 279
subtract 6 from both sides
3x= 273
divide both sides by 3
x= 91 first integer

Substitute x=91 to find 2nd & 3rd integers

2nd Integer
=x+2
=91+2
=93

3rd Integer
=x+4
=91+4
=95

ANSWER: The three test scores are 91, 93 and 95.

Hope this helps! :)

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

m=37h-1500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent meters and h represent hours.

We have been given that Captain Brain and Mr. Pinky start 1500 meters below the surface of the water and ascend at 37 meters per hour.

Since the submarine ascends at a rate of 37 meters per hour, so elevation of submarine after h hours would be 37h.

Since the elevation under water surface is negative, so 1500 meters below the surface of water would be -1500.    

The final elevation in meters of submarine after h hours would be initial elevation plus change in elevation after h hours that is m=37h-1500.

Therefore, the equation m=37h-1500. represents the given scenario.

3. x + 4y = 30<br> x - 2y = 0
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

x + 4y = 30

x - 2y = 0

Subtracting both equations:

6y = 30

y = 30/6

y = 5

Putting in above equation

x + 4(5) = 30

x + 20 = 30

x = 10

i hope it will help you

Two angles are supplementary. The measure of one angle is 54 more than the measure of the other angle. What is the measure of th
il63 [147K]

Answer:

bigger angle is 117°

Step-by-step explanation:

x+x+54= 180 (when two angles are complementary it means that their sum is 180 degrees)

2x+54=180

2x= 180-54

2x=128

x=126/2

x= 63

x1= smaller angle

x1= 63

x2= bigger angle

x2= 63+54

x2=117

Look at the sequence in the table.
malfutka [58]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The consecutive values of a_{n} have a common difference d, that is

d = 8 - 3 = 13 - 8 = 18 - 13 = 23 - 18 = 5

This indicates that the sequence is arithmetic.

The recursive formula allows the next term in the sequence to be found from the previous term by adding 5, thus

a_{n} = a_{n-1} + 5 → A

On a coordinate plane, point A is located at (7,4), and point B is located at (-8,4). What is the distance between the two point
Brums [2.3K]

The distance formula is d=\sqrt{(x_{2}, x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2}, y_{1})^2

7=x1

4=y2

-8=x2

4=y2

Just plug in the missing values into the equation and solve the equation :)
