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.

Answer:

  AE = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to find corresponding sides that are defined in both figures. The table below shows the given values.

From the table, we can write the proportion ...

  EA/RS = BC/TU . . . corresponding sides are proportional

  EA/6 = 4/8 . . . . . . . substitute given lengths

  EA = 6(4/8) = 3

The length of AE is 3 units.
