It's 12 because if you divide 36 by 3 (consecutive) it equals 12

If you have three of them, they go in order: 2, 3, 4 and so on.

<span>If the lowest is X then the next two are x + 1  and x + 2. </span>

<span>Though the question asks you to look for the highest, so I'll call that x, so the other two become "x - 1" and x - 2</span>

<span>So if we add them up to get 36, we get: </span>

<span>x + (x - 1) + (x - 2) = 36 </span>

<span>Solving for x: </span>

<span>3x - 3 = 36 </span>
<span>3x = 39 </span>
<span>x = 13 </span>

Describe the next figure in each pattern. Then draw the figure
madreJ [45]
The first figure has 3 angles, the second one has 4 angles, the third one has 5 angles so the next one will have 6 angles.

The violet figures inside stick with each side of the outer figures in the middle, so the last figure will look more less like in the attachment.

Step by step plz <br> 2x^2 + x - 3
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

x = 1 or x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

2 x^2 + x - 3 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(x - 1) (2 x + 3) = 0

Split into two equations:

x - 1 = 0 or 2 x + 3 = 0

Add 1 to both sides:

x = 1 or 2 x + 3 = 0

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x = 1 or 2 x = -3

Divide both sides by 2:

Answer: x = 1 or x = -3/2

What is y=-4/3x +6. y=2
Mekhanik [1.2K]

The given equation is:
[/tex]y=-\frac{4}{3}x+6 [/tex] and we need to evaluate this for y=2.
So, first step is to plug in 2 for y in the above equation. Therefore,

2=-\frac{4}{3} x+6
2*3=-\frac{4}{3} x*3+6*3 Multiply each sides by common denominator 3
6=-4x+18
6-18= -4x Subtract 18 from each sides.
-12=-4x
-\frac{12}{-4} =-\frac{4x}{-4}
So, x=3
