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.

Can somebody please help me
guajiro [1.7K]

Here is your answer

B. (12,30)

REASON:

Given,

y= 2x+6 .......(i)

3x-y= 6 .......(ii)

Putting the value of y from eq.i in eq.ii we get

3x-(2x+6)=6

3x-2x-6=6

=6+6

x=12

Putting x=12 in eq.i we get

y= 2x+6

y= 2×12+6

y= 24+6

y= 30

So,

\bold{x=12 and y= 30}

Hence answer is (12,30) in which x=12 and y=30

Using the standard 28/36 guidelines, what is the maximum mortgage payment allowed for someone with
Nitella [24]

The maximum mortgage payment allowed for someone with an annual salary of $83,750 would be $2512.50 per month.

<h2><u>What is the standard 28/36 guidelines?</u></h2>

To determine, using the standard 28/36 guidelines, what is the maximum mortgage payment allowed for someone with an annual salary of $83,750, the following calculation must be made:

  • Annual salary x 36% / months = X
  • ((83750 x 36) / 100) / 12 = X
  • (3,015,000 / 100) / 12 = X
  • 30150 / 12 = X
  • 2512.50 = X

Therefore, the maximum mortgage payment allowed for someone with an annual salary of $83,750 would be $2512.50 per month.
