I think the answer is c, 88
Hope this helps :)
A right angle is 90 degrees, so five-thirds of a right angle is 90*5/3=450/3=150 degrees.
If you want to check if your answer is correct, expanding it all out will help!
(x-6)(x+2)=0 <-- Use FOIL tactic
x²+2x-6x-12=0
x²-4x-12=0
As you can see, this is identical to the initial equation given. The x values would be 6 and -2, as seen from the factored equation.
Hope I helped :)
Let
x----------> the first number
y---------> the second number
z--------> the third number
we know that
x+y+z=19-----> z=19-x-y------> equation 1
2x+4y+5z=72-----> equation 2
4x-y=12------> equation 3
substitute equation 1 in 2
2x+4y+5*[19-x-y]=72----> 2x+4y+95-5x-5y=72----> -3x-y=-23
3x+y=23------> equation 4
add equation 3 and equation 4
4x-y=12
3x+y=23
--------------
7x+0y=35--------> x=35/7----------> x=5
4x-y=12------> y=4x-12----> y=4*5-12----> y=8
z=19-x-y------> z=19-5-8----> z=6
the answer is
the numbers are
5
8
6
