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! :)

PLEASE HELP!<br><br> What is AD? <br><br> A. 15 <br><br> B. 12 <br><br> C. 3 <br><br> D. 20
ki77a [65]

Answer:

A. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you need to compare the lengths given to you in the question statement.

Because the lines originate from a single point, they're like triangles.  We can easily see a triangle AGF and a triangle ADE, right?

Both triangles are similar triangles, so we can see triangle ADE as a larger version of angle AGF.

They give you the dimension of A F and A E (through A F + F E) to establish a ratio... and they give you A G, asking for A D.

So, A F = 16, A E = 20 (16 + 4), A G = 12.

Since A D is to A G what A E is to A F, we can easily make the following cross-multiplication:

\frac{A D}{A G} = \frac{A E}{A F}

So, A D = (A G * A E)/A F

A D = (12 * 20) / 16 = 15

Find the slope of the line given two points:
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option C</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(8, 10) and (-7, 14)

The slope is

m =  \frac{14 - 10}{ - 7 - 8}  =  \frac{4}{ - 15}  =  -  \frac{4}{15}  \\

We have the final answer as

-  \frac{4}{15}  \\

Hope this helps you

The triangle shown below has an area of 10 units2.<br> Find x.<br> 7<br> 4<br> x<br> units
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

<h3>x = 5 units</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a triangle = 1/2 base * height

where area = 10 units²

        height = x units

          base = 4

<u>plugin values into the formula:</u>

10 = 1/2 * 4 * x

x =<u> 10 (2) </u>

        4

x = 5 units

Robert has a container of a shape of a cube with an edge length of 6.1 what's the value of the container
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

226.981

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is found using the formula V = s³. Substitute s = 6.1 and simplify.

V = s³

V = (6.1)³

V = (6.1)(6.1)(6.1)

V = 226.981

In ABC,if sin A=4/5 and tan A=4/3, then what I s cos A?
Svet_ta [14]
Cos(A) will be 3/5 Cos(A) is adjacent/hypotenuse. So here we have sin(A)=opp/hyp which is 4/5 and tan(A)=opp/adj which is 4/3. So cos(A) is adj./hyp and knowing the previous 2 terms of sin(A) and cos(A), you can go ahead and find Cos(A). So cos(A) is 3/5
