Answer:

17, 19, 21

Step-by-step explanation:

If we denote the smallest number as x, then the middle number will be x + 2 and the largest number will be x + 2 + 2.

The equation is:

x + (x + 2) = 3 * (x + 2 + 2) - 27

2x + 2 = 3x + 12 - 27

2x - 3x = 12 - 27 - 2

-x = -17

x = 17

The numbers are: 17, 19, 21

Let's check to be sure:

17 + 19 = 36

3 * 21 - 27 = 63 - 27 = 36

The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle described is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h]

<h3>How to determine the range of speed associate to desired gas mileages</h3>

In this question we have a <em>quadratic</em> function of the <em>gas</em> mileage (g), in miles per gallon, in terms of the <em>vehicle</em> speed (v), in miles per hour. Based on the information given in the statement we must solve for v the following <em>quadratic</em> function:

g = 10 + 0.7 · v - 0.01 · v²      (1)

An effective approach consists in using a <em>graphing</em> tool, in which a <em>horizontal</em> line (g = 20) is applied on the <em>maximum desired</em> mileage such that we can determine the <em>speed</em> intervals. The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h].

It will take Adam four hours to drive to Disney Park, and 2.5 times less time if driving 45 mph faster. What is the distance Ada
Travka [436]

Answer:

120 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to the distance divided by the time

Let

s------> the speed in mph

d-----> the distance in miles

t -----> the time in hours

s=d/t

solve for the distance

d=s*t

<em>It will take Adam four hours to drive to Disney Park</em>

s=x mph

t=4 h

substitute

d=4x -----> equation A

<em>It will take Adam 2.5 times less time if driving 45 mph faster</em>

so

s=(x+45) mph

t=4/2.5=1.6 h

substitute

d=1.6(x+45) -----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

4x=1.6(x+45)

Solve for x

4x=1.6x+72

4x-1.6x=72

2.4x=72

x=30 mph

Find the distance d

d=4x -----> d=4(30)=120 miles
