Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 consecutive integers....

1st integer = x

2nd integer = x + 1

3rd integer = x + 2

the product of 1st and 3rd is 5 greater then 5 times the 2nd...

x(x+2) = 5(x + 1) + 5

x^2 + 2x = 5x + 5 + 5

x^2 + 2x = 5x + 10

x^2 + 2x - 5x - 10 = 0

x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0

x - 5 = 0 x + 2 = 0

x = 5 x = -2

so it will be : 5,6,and 7 or -2,-1, and 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle BAC = Angle ACD = 50 degrees, because they are alternate angles.

Angle ACB = 180 - (50 + 80) = 50 degrees, because angles in a triangle sum up to 180 degrees.

Since Angle BAC = Angle BCA, triangle ABC is isosceles.

Find x such that 3^x = 27 mod 32 (b)

gregori [183]

Answer:

The value of x is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that $3^x = 27 mod\ 32$

We know that:

$3^4=81$

Now if we divide the number 81 with 32 it will gives us remainder 17.

This can be written as:

$3^4\equiv 17(mod\ 32)$

Now use the property: $a^n\equiv b^n(mod\ m)$

$(3^4)^2\equiv 17^2(mod\ 32)$

17²=289, if we divide 289 with 32 it will gives us remainder 1, thus.

$3^8\equiv 1(mod\ 32)$

Multiply both the sides by 3³.

$3^8\times 3^3\equiv 3^3(mod\ 32)$

$3^{11}\equiv 27(mod\ 32)$

Hence, the value of x is 11.
