Because the needed numbers are consecutive their average will be the middle number. Knowing this, just divide 72 by three, which would equal 24. 24 would be the middle number so, 23+24+25=72. The smallest of these is 23.

72:3=24
24-1=23
24+1=25

23+24+25=72
23 is the smallest

100 POINTS!!!! PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! EXPLANATION WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

1) B- Substitution

2) C- Elimination

3) A- Graphing

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

x+3y=7

5x+11y=3

x = 7 - 3y

Plug this x into the second equation and solve for y first

2)

5x-3y=3 --> (1)

2x+7y=6 --> (2)

Since making any variable the subject would involve fractions, it's better to go for elimination

7(1) + 3(2)

would eliminate y

3)

While comparing cost and adjusting choices, a graph is a better approach because all the possibilities are right in front
