Answer:

First number: 71/7

Second number: 135/7

Third number: 270/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First number = x

Second number= 2x-1

Third number= 2(2x-1)

x+(2x-1)+2(2x-1)= 68

3x-1+4x-2=68

7x-3=68

7x=71

x=71/7

You can check by plugging in the x into the equation.

Anon25 [30]
  <span>a = 1/2 x b x h 

h = 3b 

so 1/2 x b x 3b = (1/2)(3b^2) = 150 

(150 x 2)/3 = b^2 

100 = b^2 

b = square root of 100 = 10 

h = 3b = 3 x 10 = 30</span>
