Numbers are 416, 417 and 418

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Let the numbers be x, x + 1 and x + 2. Given that their sum is 1251.

⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 1251

⇒ 3x + 3 = 1251

⇒ 3x = 1248

⇒ x = 416

Step 2:

Find the other numbers.

⇒ x + 1 = 417 and x + 2 = 418

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point ( -6 , 2 ) and is parallel to the line y = 1/2x + 4.

SashulF [63]

Parallel lines need the same slope, and for y = 1/2x + 4, it is 1/2.

Let's solve for b.

2 = 1/2(-6) + b
2 = -3 + b
Add 3 on both sides.
5 = b

y = 1/2x + 5

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: I believe the answer is A. That is is an rational number because 3/4+1/2=5/4 aka 1 and 1/4 which is rational because it terminates.
