Answer:

Three consecutive numbers are 27,28,29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The sum of three consecutive integers is 84.

To find : What are the integers?

Solution : Let three consecutive numbers $x, x+1, x+2$

So, according to given situation 'sum of three consecutive integers is 84'.

$x+x+1+x+2=84$

$\Rightarrow 3x+3=84$

$\Rightarrow 3x=84-3=81$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{81}{3}$

$\Rightarrow x=27$

So, $x=27$

$x+1= 27+1=28$

$x+2=27+2=29$

Therefore, three consecutive numbers are 27,28,29

Ciana wants to buy a shirt that regularly cost 30$.It is on sale for 40$ off. How much is Ciana saving on the shirt?Please help

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

I think you meant 40% off. If so...

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to turn 40 into a decimal - .40.

Then you multiply 30*.40 and get 12.

Subtract 12 from 30 since you are saving 12 dollars.

This means you spend $18 and saved $12.

So, your final answer would be $12.

Hope this helps :)

Find the value of x and y of the equilateral triangle. I need it ASAP

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

x=12, y=30

Step-by-step explanation:

to find x:

in a equilateral triangle, all three sides are congruent, so:

4x-4=3x+8

x-4=8

x=12

to find y:

in an equilateral triangle, all the angles are 60°, so:

2y=60

y=30°

Richard is given one of four pieces of equal-sized fabric. After using some of his fabric for a project, he has 5/6 of a square

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Richard used $2\frac{1}{12}\ yd ^2$ of fabric for his project.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total amount of fabric = $11\frac23\ yd^2$

Now To convert a mixed fraction to an improper fraction, Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator, Add that to the numerator,Then write the result on top of the denominator.

$11\frac23\ yd^2$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{35}{3}\ yd^2$

Number of pieces fabric was cut = 4

Richard is given one of four pieces of equal-sized fabric.

Amount of fabric Richard was given = $\frac14 \times \frac{35}{3}=\frac{35}{12}\ yd^2$

Amount of fabric left with Richard = $\frac56 \ yd^2$

We need to find the amount of fabric Richards used for his project.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

amount of fabric Richards used for his project is equal to Amount of fabric Richard was given minus Amount of fabric left with Richard.

framing in equation form we get;

amount of fabric Richards used for his project = $\frac{35}{12}-\frac56$

Now we will make the denominator common using LCM we get;

amount of fabric Richards used for his project = $\frac{35}{12}-\frac{5\times2}{6\times2} = \frac{35}{12}-\frac{10}{12}$

Now Denominator is same so we will solve the numerator.

amount of fabric Richards used for his project = $\frac{35-10}{12}= \frac{25}{12}\ yds^2$

$\frac{25}{12}\ yds^2$ can be rewritten as $2\frac{1}{12}\ yd ^2$

Hence Richard used $2\frac{1}{12}\ yd ^2$ of fabric for his project.
