Let
x = first consecutive number
x + 1 = second consecutive number
x + 2 = third consecutive number

The sum of these numbers are 111.
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 111
3x = 111 - 1 - 2
3x = 108
x = 36

Therefore, the smallest number is 36 because other numbers are 37 and 38.

Answer=36 + 37 + 38 = 111 (36 is the smallest number)

In algebraic form it is x+ x+1 + x+2 = 111 First you minus the 2 and the 1 to give you 108 and then divide that by 3 to give you x (36). That gives you the smallest of the consecutive numbers. Then add on the one on 36 to give 37 and another one to give 38.

The drama club is selling tickets for a play. The profit, y, is
Goshia [24]

Answer:

80 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the profit, y, modeled by the equation, y = x^2 – 40x – 3,200, where x is the number of tickets sold, we are to find the total number of  tickets, x, that need to be sold for the drama club to break  even. To do that we will simply substitute y = 0 into the given the equation and calculate the value of x;

y = x^2 – 40x – 3,200,

0 = x^2 – 40x – 3,200,

x^2 – 40x – 3,200 = 0

x^2 – 80x  + 40x – 3,200 = 0

x(x-80)+40(x-80) = 0

(x+40)(x-80) = 0

x = -40 and x = 80

x cannot be negative

Hence the total number of  tickets, x, that need to be sold for the drama club to break  even is 80 tickets

Solve the inequality
worty [1.4K]

Treat it just like and equation at first. Multiply the 10 on both sides to get rid of it, leaving you with 50 \leqx.  Then on the number line, since there is a line under it, you would make a filled in circle and an arrow pointing towards 51 and beyond
