Find three consecutive integers such that the largest is 3 less than twice the smallest

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nostrana [21]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The three consecutive integers are 5,6,7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive integers be represented as x,x+1,x+2

As per the requirement, largest integer is 3 less than twice the smallest.

=> x+ 2 = 2x -3

=> 2x -x = 2+3

=> x= 5

So the three integers are 5,6,7

Verification:

Largest integer = 7

Smallest integer = 5

2 * smallest integer - 3 = 2* 5 - 3 = 7

Largest integer is also 7.

So the required condition in the question is satisfied by these three integers.

Write the quadratic function in vertex form: f(x) = 4x2 + 2x -5
Andrei [34K]
Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation:  <span>f(x) = 4x^2 + 2x -5.  To find the vertex form of this equation, complete the square:

f(x) = 4x^2 + 2x                                           - 5
      = 4(x^2 + (2/4)x)                                         - 5
      =  4(x^2 + (1/2)x )                                  -5
      = 4(x^2 + (1/2)x + 1/16  ) - 4/16 - 5
      = 4(x+1/4) - 21/4    <= in vertex form

Here h= -1/4 and k = -21/4.  The vertex is at (-1/4, -21/4)</span>
