Answer:

51, 52 and 53

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x, x+1 and x+2

x+x+1+x+2=156

3x+3=156

subtract 3 from both sides

3x=156-3

3x=153

divide both sides by 3

x=156/3

x=51

x+1=52

x+2=53

Hence, the integers are 51, 52 and 53.

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: (2a + 2b)²

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + b² = z

ab = y

Which is equivalent to 4z + 8y ?

Substitution

4(a² + b²) + 8(ab)

Simplify 4a² + 4b² + 8ab

Order 4a² + 8ab + 4b² It's a perfect square trynomial

Factorize (2a + 2b)²

You attend a wedding and are second in line to get a slice of wedding cake. there are 3 slices of vanilla cake, 12 slices of cho

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

1/14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent the event First person getting red velvet cake
Let B represent the event Second person getting red velvet cake

P(A) = Total number of Red Velvet Cakes ÷ Total Number of Cakes =

6/21 = 2/7

If the first person gets a red velvet cake, then there are 5 red velvet cakes and 20 total cakes

Therefore P(B|A) = Number of red velvet cakes left ÷ total number of cakes left = 5/20 = 1/4

P(A and B) == probability of both getting red velvet cake P(A∩B) = P(A).P(B|A) = 2/7 × 1/4 = 2/28 = 1/14
