Answer:
a = 3, b = -1, c = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the three numbers be a, b and c.
Equation 1: a + b + c = 12
Equation 2: a + 2b + 3c = 31
Equation 3: 9b + c = 1
Equation 2 - Equation 1:
Equation 4: b + 2c = 19
Equation 3 times by the number 2
Equation 5: 18b + 2c = 2
Equation 5 - Equation 4
17b = -17
b = -1
Substitute into Equation 4:
2c - 1 = 19
2c = 20
c = 10
Substitute into Equation 1:
a + b + c = 12
a - 1 + 10 = 12
a = 3
Original:
<span>The width and length of a rectangle are consecutive odd integers
</span>so W = x and L = x + 2
<span>If the length is increased by 5 feet, then new L = x + 2 + 5 = x + 7
</span>
A = L x W
60 = (x + 7) x
60 = x^2 + 7x
x^2 + 7x - 60 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 12) = 0
x = 5 and x = -12
From here you have x = W = 5 ft and L = x + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7 feet
Area of original = 5 x 7 = 35
answer
<span>the area of the original rectangle: </span>35 ft^2
