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.

Line z has a slope of 2.5 and goes through point (4, 13). Which equation best represents line z?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

y - 13 = (5/2)(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we know the slope and one point on the line.  Use the point-slope formula:

y - k = m(x - h).

Substituting 13 for k, 4 for x and 2.5 for m, we get:

y - 13 = (5/2)(x - 4)

It took emily 25 min to rideHer bicycle to the repair shop in one hour and 15 minutes to walk back home. If Emily her bicycle to
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:the repair shop is 5km from her house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance of the repair shop from her house.

Let y represent Emily's speed when riding.

Distance = speed × time

It took Emily 25 min to ride her bike to the repair shop. Converting 25 min to hours, it becomes 25/60 = 5/12 hours.

Distance covered,

x = y × 5/12 = 5y/12

It took her 1h 15 min to walk back home. Converting to hours, it becomes 1 + 15/60 = 1 1/4 = 5/4

If she can ride her bike 8km/h faster than she can walk, it means that her speed while walking would be y 8 8

Therefore,

Distance covered,

x= 5/4(y - 8) = (5y - 40)/4

Since the distance remains the same, then

5y/12 =(5y - 40)/4

Crossmultiplying, it becomes

5y × 4 = 12(5y - 40)

20y = 60y - 480

60y - 20y = 480

40y = 480

y = 480/40 = 12

x = 5y/12 = 5 × 12/12 = 5 km
