Answer:

-188, -187, -186

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x+1) +(x+2) will usually be the formula for questions like this. If there wer 4 consecutive numbers, you just add (x+3) and so on.

The three integers are:

x + (x+1) + (x+2) Simplify this :

3x+3 = -561 Get 3x by itself, subtract 3 on both sides:

-3 -3

3x = -564 Find x divide -564 and 3:

x = -188

-188 is the first number now you count up.

-188 is the first number, -187 is the second, -186 is the third.

Hope this helps : )

Answer:

d) x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{x} +5 = \sqrt{x + 45}$

$(\sqrt{x} +5)^{2} = (\sqrt{x + 45})^{2}$

$x + 10\sqrt{x} +25 = x + 45$

$10\sqrt{x} = 20$

divide 10 in both sides

$(\sqrt{x}){2} = (2){2}$

x=4

(f+g-k)(x) means to add the equations f(x) and g(x) then subtract k(x)

2x^2 + 3x + 4x - 9 = 2x^2 +7x -9

2x^2 + 7x - 9 - x^2 -7x = x^2 -9

The answer is : x^2 - 9
