Answer:

The largest of three numbers  is 38.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The sum of three consecutive even integers is 108.

We have to find the largest of three consecutive even integer.

Consecutive integers are integer having a difference of one between each term . example 14 , 15, 16 ..

consecutive even integers are integers having a difference of two between them such that first term is in the form of 2n , where n is integers.

Consider the three consecutive even integers are 2n , 2n + 2 , 2n + 4

Also, given The sum of three consecutive even integers is 108.

that is 2n + 2n + 2 + 2n + 4 = 108

Simplify, we get,

6n + 6 = 108

Subtract 6 both side, we get,

6n = 102

Divide by 6 both side, we get,

n = 17

Thus, numbers are 2n = 2 × 17 = 34

2n + 2 = 34 + 2 = 36

2n + 4 = 34 + 4 = 38

Thus, The sum of three consecutive even integers is 108 then integers are 34, 36, 38 .

Thus, The largest of three numbers  is 38.

I need help on this one I have the image attached

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The ADF is 90 degrees so the CAF will also be 90

So you do

( x + 15 ) + 90 + 35 = 180

x + 15 + 90 + 35 - 90 = 180 -90

x + 15 + 35 = 90

x + 15 + 35 - 35 = 90 - 35

x + 15 = 55

x + 15 - 15 = 55 - 15

x = 40
