The smallest is 6
Three consecutive integers
X. Smallest 6
X+1. 7
X+2. Largest 8

X(X+1)= 4(X+2)+10
X^2+X= 4x+8+10
X^2+X-4x-18=0
X^2-3x-18=0

( X+3)(X-6)
X=-3. X=6
Don't use the negative

Check 6(7)= 4(8)+10
42=42

The volume of the sphere is 500/3 pie cubic units . what is the value of X?
lilavasa [31]
Volume=4/3 pi r^3. so 4/3 pi r^3 = 500/3 pi. Therefore, divide by pi, and multiply by 3, you get 4r^3=500. Divide by 4 to get r^3=125, and cube root to result in 25. r=25.

in a xy-coordinate system line 1 has a slope of -3. If the points (2,16 and (5,t) are on line 1, what is the value of t?
Dimas [21]
We can use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 to find our answer. So, we have : t-16/5-2 = -3. We simplify that to t-16/3 = -3. We can then multiply both sides by 3 to get t-16 = -9. Then we can add 16 to both sides to get t = 7.
