Answer:

The three numbers are 341, 342, and 343

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 1026. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 1026

To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract three from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 1026

3X + 3 = 1026

3X + 3 - 3 = 1026 - 3

3X = 1023

3X/3 = 1023/3

X = 341

Which means that the first number is 341, the second number is 341 + 1 and the third number is 341 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 1026 are 341, 342, and 343.

341 + 342 + 343 = 1026

We know our answer is correct because 341 + 342 + 343 equals 1026 as displayed above.

Solve for X and y PLEASE GIVE FULL EXPLANATION HOW YOU GOT IT
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(1, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

we isolate y in the first equation

2x+y=1

-2x.  -2x

y=1-2x

and now we fill y into second equation

4x-2(1-2x)=6

4x-2+4x=6

8x-2=6

   +2 +2

8x=8

/8 /8

x=1

and now to find y we insert x

2(1)+y=1

2+y=1

-2.   -2

y= -1

hopes this helps

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line shown. (-4,0) and (1,-5)
Irina18 [472]

The slope intercept form is y = -x - 4

To find the slope intercept form given a couple of points, start by finding the slope using the slope equation.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-5 - 0)/(1 - -4)

m = -5/5

m = -1

Now we look for the intercept using slope intercept form, our slope and a point.

y = mx + b

0 = -4(-1) + b

0 = 4 + b

-4 = b

Now we can use those two things top model the equation.

y = -x - 4

What is the measure of (2x+94) = (8x+10)
Anna [14]
I subtract 2x  to 8x that is equal to 6x; then I subtract 10 from right to left. So 94-10 equal 84. Now you got 6x=84, divide 6 both side and you got the answer. 
 
The answer is x= 14
