If <em>x</em> is the smallest of the three, then the next two integers are <em>x</em> + 2 and <em>x</em> + 4.
"Twice the largest is 20 less than the sum of all three" translates to
2 (<em>x</em> + 4) = (<em>x</em> + (<em>x</em> + 4) + (<em>x</em> + 6)) - 20
Solve for <em>x</em> :
2<em>x</em> + 8 = 3<em>x</em> - 10
<em>x</em> = 18
Then the three numbers are {18, 20, 22}.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the diameter of the square
We can find this using the Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2 where the legs are 7 and 7 and the diameter is c
7^2 +7^2 = c^2
49+49 = c^2
98 = c^2
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(98) = sqrt(c^2)
9.899494937 = c
Since 9.9 is less than 11 which is the diameter of the circle it will never touch the circle.
Since the longest part of the square is less than the diameter of the circle, the square will fit inside the circle without touching
Answer:
C. In y^2-y=6, 6 should have been subtracted on both sides first.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a quadratic equation so you subtract the 6 and create
y^2-y-6=0
Then you factor it to:
(y-3)(y+2)=0
The solutions then are:
y-3=0, y=3 and y+2=0, y=-2
{-2,3}
The problem states that a certain car travels 35 miles per gallon of fuel. This statement has a certain level of uncertainty, because the fuel consumption varies with how the car is manuvered, therefore the correct answer is measured quantity.
He will travel 55km In 2.5 hours at a rate of 22kmph
