Answer:
12, 13, 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the integers as:
x
x+1
x+2
The sum of their squares, so that would be;
(x^(2)) + (( x + 1 )^(2)) + (( x + 2 )^(2)) = 509
write out the squares
x^2 + x^2 + 2x + 1 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 509
combine like terms
3x^2 + 6x + 5 = 509
inverse operations
3x^2 + 6x + 5 = 509
-5 -5
3x^2 + 6x = 504
factor
3x^2 + 6x = 504
3 ( x^2 + 2x ) =504
Inverse operations
3 ( x^2 + 2x ) = 504
/3 /3
x^2 + 2x = 168
Factor again
x ( x + 2 ) = 168
At this point, it should be obvious that x is 12 (because 12 * 14 = 168)
So now substitute back into the consecutive numbers
x = 12
x + 1 = 13
x + 2 = 14
We first calculate the percentage increase on the tax
Old value = 25×9 = 225 ⇒ The value 9 represents the 9 lots of thousands of the house's value
New value = 28×9 = 252
Increase in tax = 252 - 225 =27
Percentage increase = (27÷225) ×100 = 12%
The amount of yearly rent would be then increased by 12%
Monthly rent = $60
Yearly rent = 60×12 = $720
Increase by 12% = 720×1.12 = 806.4 ⇒ The value 1.12 is the multiplier, obtained from 100%+12%=112%=1.12
The monthly rent is 806.4÷12 = $67.20 which is an increase of $7.20 per month
