Answer:

<h3>            9, 10 and 11</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

x - the smallest of three consecutive integers (the first)

x+1 - the next of three consecutive integers (the second)

x+2 - the last of three consecutive integers (the third)

3(x+2) - three times the third integer

<u>3(x+2)+x </u> - three times the third increased by the first

5(x+1)   - five times the second tnteger

<u>5(x+1)-8 </u>  - 8 less than five times the second

3(x + 2) + x = 5(x + 1) - 8

3x + 6 + x = 5x + 5 - 8

   4x + 6 = 5x - 3

       -4x        -4x

        6 = x - 3

         x = 9

x+1 = 10

x+2 = 11

Check:  3×11+9 = 33+9 = <u>42</u>,   5×10-8=50-8 = <u>42</u>

What can be concluded from the pie chart?
QveST [7]

The information that can be concluded from the pie chart is in 2018, more than one-fourth of the revenue collected for state and local governments in Florida came from sales taxes.

A pie chart is a circular graph that is used to show information. The circle is divided into sectors used to represent a numerical proportion. A pie chart adds up to 100%.

The pie chart in this question shows the sources of state and local revenue for Florida in 2018. The circle is divided into seven sectors that represent the sources of revenues.

The following can be deduced from the pie chart:

  • Excise taxes represent 1.2% of 100% of the circle. This is the smallest source of revenue for the state of Florida. Corporate income taxes represent 2% of the circle. Income from excise tax was less than income from corporate income taxes.

  • The sector that represents property tax is 13.7% and the sector that represents sales tax is 26.1%. Sales tax was a greater source of revenue when compared with property tax.

  • The proportion of sales tax to total revenue is 26.1%. This is more than 25%(1/4) of total revenue.

If x3= 27 and y3 =125, what is the value of y-x
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

32 2/3

(32.6 repeating)

Step-by-step explanation:

29/3 is 9 (just make it not 3 Xs,) so x=9

125/3 is 41 2/3 so y= 41 2/3

41 2/3 - 9 = 32 2/3
