Divide the number by 3, this will be the middle integer:

222 / 3 = 74

Now subtract 2 from that for the lower number, and add 2 to the middle number for the highest number.

74 - 2 = 72

74 + 2 = 76

72 + 74 + 76 = 222

The 3 numbers are 72, 74 and 76.

Write a proportion for 56% of a number is 244

Misha Larkins [42]

$\frac{56}{100} = \frac{244}{x}$ So, You cross multiply and get 56x=244(100). Simplify and you get 56x=24400. Divide each side by 56 and you get 435.71. 56% of about 435.71 is 244.

The graph of a quadratic function is shown above.

OleMash [197]

Answer:

0 real zeros
2 complex zeros

Step-by-step explanation:

The "fundamental theorem of algebra" says a polynomial of degree n will have n zeros. If the polynomial has real coefficients, the complex zeros will appear in conjugate pairs.

The graph of this quadratic (degree = 2) does not cross the x-axis, so there are no real values of x that make y=0. That means the two zeros are both complex.
