X + (X+1) + (X+2) = 170 this is setting the first number equal to X, so it makes sense that X+1 is the number above it, and X+2 is 2 numbers above it.
3X + 3 = 170 now solve for X
3X =167
X = 55 2/3 now you need to add 1 and 2 to that answer to get the next 2 numbers.
So 55 2/3, 56 2/3, 57 2/3
It appears as though there are no 3 consecutive natural numbers that when added together are equal to 170.

Figure A is translated 3 units right and 2 units up. The translated figure is labeled figure B. Figure B is reflected over the x
Virty [35]

Answer:

A Is congruent to B and B Is congruent to C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at the answer choices:

A: "A Is congruent to B and B Is congruent to C"

Well, clearly, if A ≅ B and B ≅ C, then by the transitive property, we can say that A ≅ C. So, A is very likely correct.

B: "A Is congruent to A, B Is congruent to B, C Is congruent to C"

Just because A is congruent to itself (and same with B and C) doesn't necessarily mean that they're congruent <em>to each other</em>. So, B is wrong.

C: "Each triangle is a right triangle."

Again, there are so many right triangles out there with different dimensions. For example, there are some with sides 3, 4, and 5, and others with sides 5, 12, and 13. They are <em>not</em> congruent, however. So, rule out C.

D: "Each triangle is an isosceles triangle."

This is just like choice C since there are so many variations of isosceles triangles. So D is wrong.

The answer is thus A.
