Answer:

The numbers are 1, 20, and 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n, n+1 and n+2 be the three consecutive numbers.

<u>To find the numbers</u>

It is given that, the sum of 3 consecutive numbers is 60

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 60

n + n + 1 + n + 2 = 60

3n + 3 = 60

3n = 60 - 3 = 57

n = 57/3 = 19

Therefore the numbers are 1, 20, and 21

Answer:

The numbers are 19,20 and 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the first consecutive number

x+1 ---> the second consecutive number

x+2 --> the third consecutive number

we know that

x+(x+1)+(x+2)=60

Solve for x

3x+3=60

3x=57

x=19

so

x+1=19+1=20

x+2=19+2=21

therefore

The numbers are 19,20 and 21

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

75/4 cups (or 18-3/4 cups)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ignore all the wording about glue, baking soda and saline.

What this question reduces to is that the recipe for :

2 people ---> requires 3 3/4 cups (or 15/4 cups) of shaving cream

10 people ----> requires 5 times the amount of shaving cream needed for 2 people

Hence shaving cream needed for 10 people

= 5 x 3 3/4 cups

= 5 x 15/4 cups

= 75/4 cups (or 18-3/4 cups)

Find all solutions in the interval (0,2pi) you should get kpi and pi/4 but how do you get there
Ket [755]

Add sin(x) to both sides

tan(x)sin(x)=sin(x)

Divide sin(x) from both sides

tan(x)=1

now you just have to figure out where tan(x)=1. you can figure this out from there by looking at the unit circle.

Help please, i dont understand

Answer:

formula: y-y1 = m(x-x1)

Step-by-step explanation:

General:

1. find 2 points directly on the line and apply the formula y2-y1 over x2-x1 this answer equals m

2. then add it into the formula y-y1 = m(x-x1) remember x and y are variables so only put numbers in y1 and x1

3. solve the problem

Example:

line 1:

1. y2-y1 over x2-x1 is 4-6 over 6-4 = -1

2.  y-6 = -1(x-(-4) or y-6 = -1(x+4)

3. y-6 = -1x-4

4. y = -1x-2

3. the gradient equals: y = -1x-2

Hope this helps :) Let me know if you need a better example
