First number --- (2a-1)
middle number ---- (2a)
third number -----(2a+1)
2a-1+2a+2a+1=250
6a=250
a=250/6= 125/3
2a=2*(125/3)= 250/3 ---- is not a whole number that is contradicts to what is given, so sum cannot be 250
so
Answer:
1st= 47/7 or 6.71
2nd= 48/7 or 6.857
Step-by-step explanation:
1st number =X and 2nd number = Y
According to question, X+7=2Y
20+Y=4X
X=2Y-7 (from 1st condition)
putting in it second
20+Y=4(2Y-7)
20+Y=8Y-28
20+28=8Y-Y
48=7Y
Y=48/7
so X=2(48/7)-7
=96-49/7
47/7
Answer:
1176in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
find the surface area of the cube
(14*14)6=1176 inches cubed
14*14 is finding the area of one side and then we multiply it by six because that's how many congruent sides there are
Answer:
Question 1) 6x+5
Question 2) Blank #1: sum. Blank #2: 5. Blank #3: 4
See work in the attachment. If you're still confused, read the step-by-step explanation for a more in-depth explanation of what exactly I did for my work. Let me know if you have any questions :>
Step-by-step explanation:
For question 1, it's important to know that the perimeter is equal to the sum of all the sides. Since the shape is a rectangle, the sides opposite of each other are the same length. Thus, the left and right sides are both 3x - 3. 2(3x - 3) = 6x - 6. The unknown value, which I called a, is the same for both the top and the bottom. To find it, you must first subtract 6x - 6 from the perimeter of 18x + 4. This equals 12x + 10. Then, divide that answer by 2 to get the unknown side. You then get 6x + 5 as the answer for the unknown side.
To make sure it's correct, you can plug in a random number for x. In this case, I checked my work by plugging 2 in for x.
Perimeter = 18(2) + 4 = 36 + 4 = 40
Perimeter = 6(2) + 5 + 6(2) + 5 + 3(2) - 3 + 3(2) - 3 = 12 + 5 + 12 + 5 + 6 - 3 + 6 - 3 = 24 + 10 + 12 - 6 = 40
For question 2, the main idea you need to know is that A = lw. The area of the first rectangle is 6 * 5 = 30. The area of the second rectangle is 6 * 4 = 24. When you add them together, you get 54. The area of the rectangle that is formed when you combine rectangle 1 and rectangle 2 is 6 * 9 = 54. This shows that 6(4) + 6(5) = 6(9)
23/103 = 0.22
0.22*100 = 22%
The percentage increase is 22%
Hope that helps!
