First number: x

Second number: (x + 6)

Third number: (x + 6) * 7

Equation: 0 = (x)(x + 6) + 7(x + 6)

Steps to solve:

0 = x^2 + 6x + 7x + 42

0 = x^2 + 13x + 42

Using the quadratic equation, x could equal -7 or -6. In our equation above, both are applicable.

The three numbers could be -6, 0, and 0. Or they could be -7, -1, and -7.

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

-7, -1, -7

-6, 0, 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x

x+6

7(x+6)

7(x+6)+ x(x+6) = 0

(x+6)(7+x) = 0

x = -6, -7

-6, 0, 0

-7, -1, -7

If angle symbol1 and angle symbol2 are complementary angles and if the measure of angle symbol1 is 5454degrees° more than the me
Misha Larkins [42]
<span>Complementary angles by definition sum up to 90 degrees.
   Let x = measure of angle2.
 It's given that angle1 = x + 54

   Since complementary, we know (x+54)+x = 90
 2x+54=90
 2x=36
 x=18.
 So angle2 measures 18 degrees and angle1 is 18 degrees+54 degrees, or 72 degrees. 72+18 = 90 as expected for complementary angles.</span>

Find an equation of the line parallel to y=2x+3 and that passes through the point (5,3)
timama [110]

Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 2x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, 3 ) into the partial equation

3 = 10 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 10 = - 7

y = 2x - 7 ← equation of parallel line

Paula has a dog that weighs 3 times as much as Carla's dog
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The weight of Paula's dog is 36 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

SO we would draw one box for the weight of Carla's dog. Then we would draw 3 boxes for the weight of Paula's dog.

To find how much does Paula's dog weigh we divide the total weight of the dogs by the total number of boxes.

So then you would calculate 48 divided by 4.

The weight of Carla's dog is 12 pounds.

Therefore the weight of Paula's dog is 3x12=3x10+3x2=30+6=36 pounds.
