Answer:

hi there ☺️

Here we will use algebra to find three consecutive integers whose sum is 345. We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 345. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 345

To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract three from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 345

3X + 3 = 345

3X + 3 - 3 = 345 - 3

3X = 342

3X/3 = 342/3

X = 114

Which means that the first number is 114, the second number is 114 + 1 and the third number is 114 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 345 are 114, 115, and 116.

114 + 115 + 116 = 345

We know our answer is correct because 114 + 115 + 116 equals 345 as displayed above.

A 42-inch board is to be cut into three pieces so that the second piece is twice as long as the first piece and the third piece
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer: 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

       If x is the first piece, and the second piece is twice as long, then the second piece is 2x.

        If the third piece is three times as long as the first piece, x, then the third piece is 3x.

       The 42-inch board must be equal to all 3 pieces, so we will set up an equation and solve for x.

42 = x + 2x + 3x

42 = 6x

42 = 6x

7 = x

              The first piece is 7 inches long.
