Let the first number be = x
Then the second number = 2x
The third number = 2x - 5
Their sum = 55
This can be written in an equation as =
x + 2x + 2x - 5 = 55
= x + 2x + 2x = 55 + 5 ( transposing -5 from LHS to RHS changes -5 to +5 )
= x + 2x + 2x = 60
= 5x = 60
= x = 60 ÷ 5 ( transposing ×5 from LHS to RHS changes ×5 to ÷5 )
= x = 12
The first number = x = 12
The second number = 2x = 2 × 20 = 24
The third number = 2x - 5 = 24 - 5 = 19
Therefore , the three numbers are 12 , 24 and 19 .

<h3>
Answer: y</h3>
This is because y is a factor of 5y and it's also a factor of y^2 = y*y
It's the largest common factor between the two given expressions.
3x - 10 = x + 4 <== ur equation
three times a number.....3x...with the x representing the number
ten less....3x - 10
is the same as...means =
that number (x) increased by 4....x + 4
so we have 3x - 10 = x + 4...
3x - 10 = x + 4
3x - x = 4 + 10
2x = 14
x = 14/2
x = 7....and that number is 7
Answer:
<em>x° = 42°</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>x°</em> = 180° - (70° + 68°) = <em>42°</em>
