60 = x + x + 1 + x + 2

60 = 3x + 3

-3

57 = 3x

/3

19 = x

The 3 integers are: 19, 20, and 21.

Answer: 19, 20, and 21

Step-by-step explanation: This problem states that the sum of 3 consecutive integers is 60 and it asks us to find the integers.

Three consecutive integers can be represented as followed.

X ⇒ <em>first integer</em>

X + 1 ⇒ <em>second integer</em>

X + 2 ⇒ <em>third integer</em>

Since the sum of our 3 consecutive integers is 60, we can set up an equation.

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 60

3x + 3 = 60

      -3     -3

3x = 57

÷ 3  ÷ 3

X = 19

X + 1 = 20

X + 2 = 21

Therefore, our three consecutive integers are 19, 20, and 21.

Help, don’t understand this problem.
Mila [183]

Answer:

(2, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x - 5y = - 9 → (1)

x + 2y = 8 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the x- term, that is

- 3x - 6y = - 24 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

(3x - 3x) + (- 5y - 6y) = (- 9 - 24), that is

- 11y = - 33 ( divide both sides by - 11 )

y = 3

Substitute y = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting in (2)

x + 2(3) = 8

x + 6 = 8 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

x = 2

Solution is (2, 3 )

CALC BC HELPPP!!!??? 100PTS!!!
lyudmila [28]

the assumption being that "x" is a plain variable whilst "y" is a function, that matters because the chain rule would be needed for a function, not so for a plain variable.

4x^2+4x+xy=5\implies 8x+4+\stackrel{\textit{product rule}}{\left( 1\cdot y+x\cdot \cfrac{dy}{dx} \right)}=0 \\\\\\ x\cfrac{dy}{dx}=-8x-4-y\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{-8x-4-y}{x}

now, we know that y(5) = -23, which is another way of saying that when x = 5, y = -23, but we already knew that, we can get that by simply plugging it into the equation hmmm y'(5), well

\left. \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{-8x-4-y}{x} \right|_{\stackrel{x=5~}{\textit{\tiny y=-23}}}\implies \cfrac{-8(5)-4-(-23)}{5}\implies \cfrac{-21}{5}
