Answer:

  8, 10, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

For finding real solutions to cubic equations and those of higher degree, I find a graphing calculator to be useful. The problem can be cast in the form ...

  f(x) = 0

where f(x) is the difference between the product of the integers and 240:

  f(x) = x(x +2)(x -5) -240

Then all we need to do is ask the calculator to show the x-intercept. It is x=8.

So, the three integers are ...

  • x = 8
  • x+2 = 10
  • x -5 = 3

Can you guy's help me quick!

Answer:

480,700 sets (first choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

If all 25 questions are different,

When order of selection counts:

P(25,7)

= 25!/(25-7)!

= 15511210043330985984000000/6402373705728000

= 2422728000

When order of selection does not count count:

C(25,7)

=25!/(7!*(25-7)!)

=15511210043330985984000000/(6402373705728000*5040)

= 480,700

Hope this helps, have a nice day.
