Solution:
Let's name the three consecutive numbers as y, y + 2, and y + 4.
<u>Note that:</u>
- => Equation formed: 3(y) = 2(y + 4)
<u>Solve the equation to find the three consecutive numbers.</u>
- 3(y) = 2(y + 4)
- => 3y = 2y + 8
- => 3y - 2y = 8
- => y = 8
The numbers are 8, 10, and 12.
First find the value of X from the perimeter given
Perimeter = L*W
90 = 2 ((2x+2) + (x-2))
90 = 4x + 4 +4x - 4
90 = 8x
x = 11.25
Length = 2x + 2
2 (11.25) +2
=24.5
Width = x-2
11.25 -2
=9.25
h =x
= 11.25
Volume = L*W*H
24.5 * 9.25 * 11.25
2549.53 units^3
Yes it is it would not be able to go any lower
good job :)
The answer is that M’ is made by reflecting M about the x axis
