Answer:
The three consecutive integers are 5,6,7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the three consecutive integers be represented as x,x+1,x+2
As per the requirement, largest integer is 3 less than twice the smallest.
=> x+ 2 = 2x -3
=> 2x -x = 2+3
=> x= 5
So the three integers are 5,6,7
Verification:
Largest integer = 7
Smallest integer = 5
2 * smallest integer - 3 = 2* 5 - 3 = 7
Largest integer is also 7.
So the required condition in the question is satisfied by these three integers.
5.5 quarts equals 22 cups. (There are 4cups in a quart, so 4 * 5.5 = 22)
22-4= 18 cups

1) Formula: area = height * base / 2
2) Call x the height:
height = x
base = 2x
3) State the equation:
(x)(2x) = 49 in^2
4) Solve the equation:
2x^2 = 49 in^s
x^2 = (49/2) in^2
x = √(49/2) in
x = 7√2 / 2 in = 3.5 √2 in
5) Solution:
height = 3.5 √2 in and base = 7√2 in
6) Verification: area = (7√2 in) (3.5√2 in) = 49 in^2
Answer: height = 3.5√2 in and base = 7√2 in.
