The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 76 less then seven times the middle number. The three integers are 17, 19 and 21 respeectively

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Since each consecutive odd integer is separated by a difference of  2

Let "n" be the first integer

n + 2 be the second integer

n + 4 be the third integer

Given that the sum of three consecutive odd integers is 76 less then seven times the middle number

Which means,

The sum of ( n, n + 2, n + 4) is equal to 76 less than seven times the middle number ( 7(n + 2))

That is,

n + n + 2 + n + 4 = 7(n + 2) - 76

3n + 6 = 7n + 14 - 76

4n = 68

n = 17

So we get:

First integer = n = 17

Second integer = n + 2 = 17 + 2 = 19

Third integer = n + 4 = 17 + 4 = 21

Thus the three consecutive odd integers are 17, 19 and 21 respeectively

How to find the diameter if you have the circumference
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Solve the equation for the diameter of the circle, d= C/π. In this example, "d = 12 / 3.14." or "The diameter is equal to twelve divided by 3.14." Divide the circumference by pi to get the answer. In this case, the diameter would be 3.82 inches

Which is the graph of f(x) = -(x + 3)(x + 1)?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercepts are -3,-1

f(x)=-(x²+x+3x+3)=-(x²+4x)-3=-(x²+4x+4-4)-3=-(x+2)²+4-3

or f(x)=-(x+2)²+1

vertex is (-2,1)

so it is an inverted  parabola with vertex (-2,1) and x-intercepts (-3,0) and (-1,0)

If the triangles in the diagram are congruent, what is the value of x?
Natalija [7]
If shapes are congruent, then they are mathematically equal (same dimensions, angles etc.). So just locate where the angle x is on both triangles, it should have a value on or a calculable value on the other. If you provide us with the actual sheet I could walk you through it.
