You have some unknown integer n, and you know that adding this and the next two integers, n+1 and n+2, gives a total of 57.

This means

n+(n+1)+(n+2)=57

The task is to find all three unknown integers. Notice that if you know the value of n, then you pretty much know the value of the other three integers.

To find n, solve the equation above:

n+(n+1)+(n+2)=3n+3=57\implies 3n=54\implies n=\dfrac{54}3=18

So if 18 is the first integer, then others must be 19 and 20.

You have to make the equation n+(n+1)+(n+2)=57.
So, 
n+(n+1)+(n+2)=57
3n+3=57
     -3  -3
3n=54
Divide 3 on both sides
n= 18

Answer:
n= 18
n+1= 19
n+2=20

LaShaundra is buying fence for two triangular sections of her garden.
mixas84 [53]

Answer: 80 feet.


Step-by-step explanation:

1. As you can see in the figure, triangle ABC and the triangle DFG are similar.

2. The scale of factor of triangle ABC to triangle DFG is the following:

sf=\frac{20ft}{4ft}\\sf=5ft

3. Therefore, the lenght of the side DG of the trinagle DFG is:

DG=5*AC\\DG=5*7ft\\DG=35ft

4. The perimeter of the triangle DFG is:

P_{DFG}=20ft+25ft+35ft=80ft

5. Therefore, she would need 80 feet of fence.
