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

Mathematics

Nostrana [21]3 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.

What is the y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) = (x – 6)(x – 2)? (0,–6) (0,12) (–8,0) (2,0) Mark this and return Save an
juin [17]

the y intercept is the constant term on the x side

-6 * -2 which is 12

we can foil this out to see that

(x-6) (x-2)

x^2 -6x -2x+12

x^2 -8x+12

so the y intercept is (0,12)

Decrease 248 by 30%
Snowcat [4.5K]
Okay this equation really says is what is 30% of 248.

So, lets convert 30% to a fraction, 3/10 which is easier to work with.

All you have to do now is get out a calculator and do 248 *3/10 (or .3) and get 74.4

So subtract 74.4 and get

173.6
