The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 117. What is the smallest of the three numbers?

Mathematics

Ugo [173]4 years ago

The first number would be represented by x, the second as
x+2 and the third as
x+4. Together they equal 117, so x+x+2+x+4= 117. You can sinplify that to equal 3x+6=117. You then solve for x (subtract the 6 from both sides to get 3x=111, and then divide both sides by 3 and you get x=37). The three numbers would be 37,39, and 41. The smallest is 37.

Two sides of an isosceles triangle have lengths of 6 inches and 15 inches, respectively. What is the length of the third side?
icang [17]
The answer is 15, since an isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides of the same length. It can't be 6, for 6+6 is only twelve, and that will not a make really triangle.
