Answer:

<h3>           8, 9, 10</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

x ← the smallest integer

x+1 ← the middle integer

x+2 ← the largest integer

3x   ← three times the smallest

x+2 + 14   ← 14 more than the largest

  3x = x+2 + 14

   -x     -x

  2x = 16

 ÷2     ÷2

   x = 8

x+1 = 8+1 = 9

x+2 = 8+2 = 10

Check:  3×8 = 24;  24-14 = 10

A garden was originally 20 ft by 23 ft. If both dimensions are decreased by the same amount, the area of the garden will be dece
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

20ft × 17ft

Step-by-step explanation:

(20-x)(23-x) = (20×23) - 120

460 - 43x + x² = 460 - 120

x² - 43x + 120 = 0

x² - 40x - 3x + 120 = 0

x(x - 40) - 3(x - 40) = 0

(x - 40)(x - 3) = 0

x = 3, 40

x = 3

New dimensions:

(23-3) × (20-3)

20 × 17
