Let n = 1st positive interger
n+1 = 2nd
n + 2 = 3rd

n+n+1+n+2 = 12
3n + 3 = 12
Minus 3 from 3 and 12

3n = 9
Divide 3n and 9 by 3

n = 3
So, the three intergers are 3, 4, and 5.

If one is 4 , then other may be 3 and so other 2......this will get you only 9 .

so it is understood that one must be greater than 4

Describe the steps in solving the linear equation 3(3x-8)=4x+6
tatiyna
Multiply everything in the parenthesis by 3.

9x - 24 = 4x + 6

Add 24 to both sides.

9x = 4x + 30

Subtract 4x from both sides.

5x = 30

Divide both sides by 5.

x = 6

Hope this helps!

Please help me out with this!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 0) ← 2points on the line

m = \frac{0-3}{4-0} = - \frac{3}{4}

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3 ) ⇒ c = 3

y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 3 ← equation of line

Answer:

2 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 divided by 1/6 is 2

3/4 plus 2 is 2 3/4

2 3/4 minus 6/12 is simplified to 2 9/12 minus 6/12, which is 2 3/12

2 3/12 is simplified to 2 1/4
