The sum of 3 consecutive odd numbers is 183. what is the second number in this sequence?

1 answer:

4 0

Let, the numbers are: x, (x+2), (x+4)
Now, x+x+2+x+4 = 183
3x + 6 = 183
3x = 177
x = 59

So, second number would be: (x+2) = (59+2) = 61

In short, Your Final answer would be 61

Hope this helps!

find an expression for the area of a rectangle of sides 2x+3 and x-1 given that the perimeter is 28cm what is the value of x

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

4cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

L=(2x+3)

W=(x-1)

P=28cm

A= L*W

A= (2x+3)*(x-1)

open bracket

A= 2x^2-2x+3x-3

collect like terms

A= 2x^2+x-3

P= 2L+2W

P= 2*(2x+3)+2(x-1)

P= 4x+6+2x-2

collect like terms

P= 6x-4

but p= 28

28= 6x-4

28-4= 6x

24= 6x

x= 24/6

x= 4cm

Hence x= 4cm

Can someone pls help??

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

a. The y coordinates for A are either 10 or -14

b. The y coordinates for A are either -11 or 7

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = sqrt ((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)

We know Point B and the x coordinate of point A as well as the distance

15 = sqrt ((-4-5)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt ((-9)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt (81+(-2-y1)^2)

Square each side

15^2 =sqrt (81+(-2-y1)^2)^2

225 = 81+(-2-y1)^2

Subtract 81 from each side

225-81 = 81-81 +(-2-y1)^2

144 = (-2-y1)^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt 144 = sqrt(-2-y1)^2

±12 = (-2-y1)

Add 2 to each side

2±12 = 2-2-y1

2±12 = -y1

14 = -y1 or -10 = -y1

Multiply by -1

-14 = y1 or 10 = y1

The y coordinates for A are either 10 or -14

Now move B to -7,-2

15 = sqrt ((-7-5)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt ((-12)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt (144+(-2-y1)^2)

Square each side

15^2 =sqrt (144+(-2-y1)^2)^2

225 = 144+(-2-y1)^2

Subtract 144 from each side

225-144 = 144-144 +(-2-y1)^2

81 = (-2-y1)^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt 81 = sqrt(-2-y1)^2

±9 = (-2-y1)

Add 2 to each side

2±9 = 2-2-y1

2±9 = -y1

11 = -y1 or -7 = -y1

Multiply by -1

-11 = y1 or 7 = y1

The y coordinates for A are either -11 or 7

You cast a fishing lure from 4 feet above the water. Its travel is given by the function h = -16t^2 + 24t + 4, where t = time in

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Fishing lure will be at a height of 12 feet after 0.19 and 1.31 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Travel of a fishing lure has been given by the expression,

h = -16t + 24t + 4

where h = height of the fishing lure

t = time or duration of travel

Height traveled by the fishing lure = 12 - 4 = 8 feet

For h = 8 feet,

8 = -16t² + 24t + 4

-16t² + 24t + 4 - 8 = 0

16t² - 24t + 4 = 0

4t² - 6t + 1 = 0

t = $\frac{6\pm\sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4(4)(1)}}{2\times 4}$

= $\frac{6\pm\sqrt{36-16}}{8}$

= $\frac{6\pm\sqrt{20}}{8}$

= $\frac{6\pm2\sqrt{5}}{8}$

= 1.31, 0.19 seconds
