Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smallest one:

● x is the first number

● x+1 is the second number

● x+2 is the third number

The sum of these numbers is 276

● x+(x+1)+(x+2) =276

● x+x+1+x+2 = 276

● 3x + 3 = 276

Substract 3 from both sides:

● 3x+3-3 = 276-3

● 3x = 273

Divide both sides by 3

● (3x)/3 = 273/3

● x = 91

So the smallest one is 91

Hi there! The answer is C.

The area of the square in the middle is the following:
length \: \times \: width \: = 5 \times 5 = 25
Hence, the area of the square is 25 cm^2.

The area of one triangle is the following:
0.5 \times base \: \times \: height \: = 0.5 \times 5 \times 8 = 20
Hence, the total area of the four triangles is 4 × 20 = 80 cm^2.

Therefore, the total area of the pyramid is 80 + 25 = 105 cm^2. The answer is C.

How to solve the inequality
beks73 [17]

Answer:

x\geq 19/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply both sides by 6 (the LCM of 6,3)

5/2 + 3-x <= 2(x-2)

2. Simplify 5/2+3-x to 11/2-x

11/2 - x<=2 (x-2)

3. Expand.

11/2-x<= 2x-4

4. Add x to both sides.

11/2<= 2x-4+x

5. Simplify 2x-4+x to 3x-4.

11/2<=3x-4

6. Add 4 to both sides.

11/2+4<=3x

7. Simplify 11/2+4 to 19/2

19/2<=3x

8. Divide both sides by 3

19/2 /3 <=x

9. Simplify 19/2 /3 to 19/2*3

19/2*3<=x

10. Simplify 2*3 to 6

19/6<=x

11. Switch sides.

x>= 19/6

Hope this helps!
