Write an equation based on the problem in the terms of x and solve the equation
first number + second number + third number = 240
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 240
3x + 3 = 240
3x = 240 - 3
3x = 237
x = 237/3
x = 79
The smallest number, x, is equal to 79
Find the next two numbers
the second number = x + 1
the second number = 79 + 1
the second number = 80
the third number = x + 2
the third number = 79 + 2
the third number = 81
ANSWER: The three numbers are 79, 80, 81
Answer:
5x^4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Re-order terms so constants are on the left</em></u>
x^2*x^2*5
5x^2*x^2
<em><u>Combine exponents</u></em>
5x^2*x^2
5x^4
<h2>(PLS GIVE <u><em>

To decrease it by 3% we need to fine 97% of it and 97% is the same as 0.97
16870 times 0.97=16363.9
16870 decreased by 3% is 16363.9
I hope I've helped!
