Answer:

First Integer = 16

Second Integer = 18

Third integer = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

An even integer is represented by 2n

Where n is any integer

Let :

First Integer = 2n - 2

Second Integer = 2n

Third integer = 2n + 2

The sum of three even consecutive numbers = 2n - 2 + 2n + 2n + 2

= 2n + 2n + 2n - 2 + 2 = 54

= 6n = 54

n = 54/6

n = 9

First Integer = 2n - 2 = 2(9) - 2

= 16

Second Integer = 2n = 2(9)

= 18

Third integer = 2n + 2 = 2(9) + 2

= 20

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

3^2 - 3 x [(5^2 - 9) / 2 ]

9 - 3 x [(25 - 9) / 2]

9 - 3 x (16/2)

9 - 3 x 8

Find y from the picture plz ​
Xelga [282]

It's a six sided polygon.  For any polygon the external angles add to 360 degrees.  The internal angles shown are the supplements of the external angles.   We have

(180 - θ₁) + (180 - θ₂) + ... + (180 - θ₆) = 360

6(180) - 360 = θ₁ + θ₂ + θ₃ + θ₄ + θ₅ + θ₆

720 = θ₁ + θ₂ + θ₃ + θ₄ + θ₅ + θ₆

The six angles add up to 720 degrees, and five of them add to

126+101+135+147+96=605

So y = 720 - 605 = 115

The degree sign is external to y so not part of the answer:
