Answer:

<h3>               41</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The consecutive integers are increasing by 1

x ← the smallest integer

x+1 ← the middle integer

x+1+1 = x+2   ← the largest integer

x + x+1 + x+2 = 120

   3x + 3 = 120

      ÷3        ÷3

      x + 1 = 40

         -1       -1

        x = 39

x+2 = 39 + 2 = 41

A rectangular poster has an area of 190 inches squared. The height of the poster is one inch less than twice its width. Find the
Annette [7]
Set the height to h, and the width to w.

We know that wh=190 and h=2w-1.

Substituting 2w-1 for h, we have:

w(2w-1)=190

So:
2w^2-w-190=0

Factoring this equation, we get (2w+19)(w-10)=0.  The solutions to this equation are -9.5 and 10, but clearly the width must be positive, Substituting 10 for the width, we get 10*2-1=19 for the height.
