Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want only the middle number, then call it x

the largest of the 3 is x + 1

The smallest of the 3 is x - 1

Add

x + 1 + x - 1 + x = 183 Cancel the 1s out.

x + x + x = 183 Combine the like terms on the left

3x = 183 Divide by 3

x = 183/3 Do the division

x = 61

The middle number is 61

What is the value of g(−3) when g(x)=2x−2 ?

nikdorinn [45]

For these types of problems, plug the value inside the ( ) into the (x) of the equation.
g (-3), g (x) = 2x-2
g (x) = 2 (-3) - 2 = -6 - 2 = -8
g (-3) = -8

Evaluate lim x=π/4(3x - tanx)

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

$\lim_{x \to\frac{\pi }{4} } (3x-tanx)$ = $3(\frac{\pi }{4} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given that

$\lim_{x \to\frac{\pi }{4} } (3x-tanx)$

= $\lim_{x \to\frac{\pi }{4} } (3x) - \lim_{x \to\frac{\pi }{4} } tanx)$

= $3(\frac{\pi }{4} )+tan(\frac{\pi }{4} )$

= $3(\frac{\pi }{4} )+ 1 )$

= $3(\frac{\pi }{4} )$
