Answer:
15,16,17
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive intigers: numbers that go in order (eg. 1,2,3....45,46,47)
x+x+1+x+2=48
3x+3=48
3x=45
x=15
15,16,17
I believe your answer is the first option, 1/2 ft.
*Volume is expressed by length x width x height.
If we multiply the length 5/7 and the height 1 & 1/2 we get 15/14:
*To multiply fractions you must multiply across, multiply the numerator (or top number) by the numerator and the denominator (bottom number) by the denominator.
- Let's turn 1 & 1/2 into a mixed fraction to make things a little easier. 1 & 1/2 also equivalent to 3/2
-Multiply the numerators together, 5 from the 5/7 and now 3 from the 3/2
(5 x 3 = 15)
-Multiply the denominators together, 7 from the 5/7 and 2 from the 3/2
(7 x 2 = 14)
Therefore, 5/7 x 1 & 1/2 is 15/14.
Now what multiplied by 15/14 equals 15/28?
Well... 1 x 15 = 15. That gives us our numerator, 1.
2 x 14 = 28... and we have our denominator 2.
Putting those two together we get a fraction of 1/2. Your width is then 1/2 ft.
I'm so sorry for all the work here! I know it's a lot. I hope it's not too confusing to look at. Hopefully this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic formula :
x = [-b ± sqrt ( b^2 - 4ac) ] / 2a
for this problem a = 3 b= - 5 c = - 4
substitute in the values and compute:
<u> x= 5/6 ± sqrt (73)/6 </u>
Answer: should be 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright. First you would want to find the common denominator of 9 and 5. This is basically a common multiple of both of these numbers. In order to do this, you multiple 7/9 by 5/5 and 4/5 by 9/9. Remember, what you do to the denominator, you also need to do to the numerator. So you get 35/45 and 36/45. Now, just compare the numerators. 36 is obviously greater than 35, so 36/45 is greater which is also 4/5. This makes your answer 7/9 < 4/5
