Three consecutive integers have a sum of 48 find the integers?

Mathematics

6 0

The sum of three consecutive integers is three times the middle one: if we call the middle one x, the three numbers are

x-1,\ x,\ x+1

So, their sum is x-1+x+x+1 = 3x

Which is three times the middle one.

So, if the sum of three consecutive intergers is 48, the middle one must be 48/3 = 16.

So, the three numbers are 15, 16 and 17

Semenov [28]

Answer:

<h2>x = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation model 4x+(-4) = -2x+8

To find the value of x, the following steps must be followed

4x+(-4) = -2x+8\\4x-4 = -2x+8\\subtracting\ 8\ from\ both\ sides\\4x-4-8=-2x+8-8\\4x-12=-2x\\4x+2x=12\\6x=12\\x=\frac{12}{6}\\ x = 2

The value of x is 2

The width of a rectangle is six meters less than three times its length. If the area of the rectangle is 105 square meters. what
Kipish [7]

Answer:

length = 7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

l = length

w = width

w = 3×l - 6

l×w = 105 m²

l×(3×l - 6) = 105

3×l² - 6×l = 105

l² - 2×l = 35

l² - 2×l - 35 = 0

solution of a squared equation is

(-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

a = 1

b = -2

c = -35

(2 ± sqrt(4 - 4×-35))/2 = (2 ± sqrt(4+140))/2 =

(2 ± sqrt(144))/2 = (2 ± 12)/2 = 1 ± 6

l1 = 1+6 = 7 meters

l2 = 1-6 = -5 meters, which did not make any sense for an actual object.

so, l = 7 meters remains.

Factor and find the zeros. z^2-z+56
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Sry its long but if your to lazy to look thru it here is the answer=   z = {-7, 8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

z2 + -1z + -56 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-56 + -1z + z2 = 0

Solving:

-56 + -1z + z2 = 0

Solving for variable 'z'.

Factor a trinomial.

(-7 + -1z)(8 + -1z) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-7 + -1z)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying:

-7 + -1z = 0

Solving:

-7 + -1z = 0

Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '7' to each side of the equation.

-7 + 7 + -1z = 0 + 7

Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0

0 + -1z = 0 + 7

-1z = 0 + 7

Combine like terms: 0 + 7 = 7

-1z = 7

Divide each side by '-1'.

z = -7

Simplifying:

z = -7

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(8 + -1z)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying:

8 + -1z = 0

Solving:

8 + -1z = 0

Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + -1z = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + -1z = 0 + -8

-1z = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8

-1z = -8

Divide each side by '-1'.

z = 8

Simplifying:

z = 8

Solution

z = {-7, 8}
