Assume the second number to be x, then the first numbers is X-2, third number is x + 2
Thus we have a sequence of x-2,x,x+2,the sum of these number is 51:
X-2+x+x+2=51
X=17
So, 15, 17, 19

How to subtract 4/5 and 3/10 in simplest form
g100num [7]
First you must find a common denominator. In this case 10 will work. You then multiply the top number by whatever you multiplied the bottom number by. This is shown below:
4/5- 3/10 = 8/10- 3/10 
You can now solve this to get 5/10. This answer can then be reduced to 1/2.

Assume that in October of a particular year about 215 billion text messages were sent or received in the US, and the prediction
Julli [10]

Answer:

There will be 243 billion messages sent or received in November.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given.

Number of text messages sent or received =215 billion.

Increment on the very next month =13\%=\frac{13}{100}=0.13

Lets find what is 13\%\ of\ 215

 ⇒13\%\ of\ 215

 ⇒0.13\times 215=27.95

So we will add this value to our previous months data.

Now

Number of text messages sent in the month of November =(27.5+215)=242.95 billion.

Rounding to the nearest tenth the answer will be 243 billion.

So 243 billion text messages were sent or received in November.

Delicious77 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Alysha's time to drive home from the market.

Speed and time are inversely proportional to each other (for the same distance), so we have ...

  (walking speed)(walking time) = (driving speed)(driving time)

  5(x +21) = (8·5)(x)

  x +21 = 8x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

  21 = 7x . . . . . . . . subtract x

  3 = x . . . . . . .divide by 7

It takes Alysha 3 minutes to drive home from the market.
