Just as an example, three consecutive integers might be 4,5,6.
If x is the least of these (4 in our example), then the other two integers would be x+1, and x+2.
Then the sum of our three integers is x + (x+1) + (x+2).
Addition is commutative so we can switch any two terms, and it is also associative so we can regroup any terms. This lets is rearrange things with all the "x" together and all the numbers together like this:
(x+x+x) + (1+2) OR 3x + 3
According to the problem, the sum is 126, so 3x+3 = 126.
3x = 123
x = 41 (which is the smallest consecutive integer)
Check our answer: 41 + 42 + 43 = 126.
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
30 + 20 + 13 = 63, + fractions = 64. But you have to divide to get to pounds. So 64 / 16 = 4
YAY
First it would be 135/1000. Then you'd have to simplify.
Simplified, it would be 27/200.
Hence, the function increases at a constant multiplicative rate..
<h2>What is a function?</h2>
function, in mathematics, an expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).
<h3>How to solve?</h3>
We know,
the answer is (B) the function increases at a constant multiplicative rate.

200=x-4 original equation
204=x addition property of equality (add 4 on both sides)
x=204 symmetric property
