ANSWER

4,8,14

EXPLANATION

Let the first number be

x

Then the second number will be

2x

and the third number is

2x + 6

The sum of these numbers is 26.

This implies that;

x + 2x + (2x + 6) = 26

Group similar terms;

x + 2x + 2x = 26 - 6

Simplify;

5x = 20

Divide both sides by 5

x =  \frac{20}{5}

This gives us;

x = 4

The numbers are:

4,8,14

The dividend is a factor of 60. The divisor is a factor of 18. The quotient is a multiple of 3. Use the numbers to find one poss
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

A possible solution is 60/2 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The dividend is a factor of 60

The divisor is a factor of 18

The quotient is a multiple of 3

The dividend is the amount divided

The dividend is the number that is dividing the dividend

The quotient is the result of the division operation

The given numbers to use are 60, 2, 30, and 18

Therefore one possible solution is 60/2 = 30

The dividend = 60 which is a factor of 60 (60 × 1 = 60)

The divisor = 2 which is a factor of 18 (2 × 9 = 18)

The quotient = 30 which is a multiple of 3 (3 × 10 = 30)

A dilation with a scale factor of 3. 5 and centered at the origin is applied to PQ¯¯¯¯¯ with endpoints P(2, 5) and Q(2, 1)
velikii [3]

Answer: The answer is P'(7, 17.5) and Q'(7, 3.5).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a line segment PQ is dilated with a scale factor of 3.5 where origin is the centre of dilation.

The end points of segment PQ are P(2, 5) and Q(2, 1).

Therefore, after dilation, the coordinates of the end points become

Thus, the coordinates of P' are (7, 17.5) and the co-ordinates of Q' are (7, 3.5).
