Any odd number can be expressed by 2n+1.

For example,  

2n+1=111
2n=110
n=110/2=55

means that 111 is 2n+1 for n=55


Thus if an odd number is 2a+1, the next few numbers are as follows:

2a+1, 2a+2, 2a+3, 2a+4, 2a+5

So 2a+1, 2a+3 and 2a+5 are 3 consecutive odd numbers.


Back to our problem: 

three consecutive odd numbers whose sum is 63 are:

(2n+1)+(2n+3)+(2n+5)=63

6n+9=63

6n=63-9=54

n=54/6=9


2n+1=2*9+1=18+1=19, the 2 next odd numbers are 21 and 23


Answer: 19, 21, 23

There is a triangular parking lot at the local mall. The second angle of the triangular parking lot is six more than twice as la
Travka [436]

Answer:

The measure of the three angles are;

The first angle is 62°

The second angle is 28°

The third angle is 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The shape of the parking lot = Triangular

Let the angles of the triangle be given as follows

First angle = A

Second angle = B

Third angle = C

The given triangle interior angle dimensions are;

A = 6 + 2× B

C = A + B

However, we have;

A + B + C = 180° (Angle sum property for a triangle)

Therefore;

A + B + C = 180° gives;

C + C = 180° (Transitive property)

2·C = 180°

C = 180°/2 = 90°

C = 90°

However, C = A + B  therefore;

90° = A + B and, A = 6 + 2 × B, we get;

A + B = 90° (Symmetric property)

6 + 2× B + B = 90° (Substitution property)

6 + 3·B = 90°

3·B = 90° - 6° = 84°

B = 84°/3 = 28°

B = 28°

From, A = 6 + 2 × B, we have;

A = 6 + 2 × 28° = 62°

A = 62°

First angle = A = 62°

Second angle = B = 28°

Third angle = C = 90°

The measure of the three angles are;

First angle is 62°

Second angle is 28°

Third angle is 90°.
