If x=1 and y=5 we get as 4product of 1+5=9
=4+5=9
9=9
lhs=rhs
3 consecutive numbers....x, x + 1 and x + 2
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 72 - 3
3x = 69
x = 69/3
x = 23
x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25
so ur numbers are 23,24,25 with 25 being the largest
Problem Example :
Given: HF || JK; HG ≅ JG
Prove: FHG ≅ KJG
Answer: A. ∠FGH ≅∠KGJ because vertical angles are congruent.
The correct answer is SSS
18 - [ 18 - [ 18 - ( 18 - 1)]]
= 18 - [ 18 - [ 18 - 17]]
=18 - [ 18 - 1]
= 18 -17
=1
