For this problem your equation will be x+(x+1)+(x+2)=537

Multiply and Simplify:

x+x+1+x+2=537

3x+3=537

Subtract 3 from both sides:

3x+3-3=537-3

3x=534

Divide both sides by 3:

3x/3=537/3

x=179

179 is the middle number so: 178+179+180=537

180 is the third number.

A circle is drawn on the coordinate plane. It has a center at (2, 1) and passes through the point (2, 5). What is the approximat
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
First we need to find the radius.  Using Pythagorean theorem we can find the radius which is the distance between the center and any point along the circle:

r=((5-1)^2+(2-2)^2)^(1/2)

r=(4^2-0^2)^(1/2)

r=4 units.

Circumference=2pr so our circumference is 8p units^2

Approximately 25.13 u^2

What does x and y equal
GaryK [48]

Answer:

x=5, y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

we can find the answer by plugging in x=3y+14 to the second equation

5(3y+14)-2y=31

simplify

15y+70-2y=31

13y=-39

y=-3

now, plug in this to the initial equation x=3y+14

x=3(-3)+14

x=-9+14

x=5

Answer:

  left, right

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use the < or ≤ symbol to compare the numbers, their left-right order is the same as on the number line. Here, we would write the ordering as ...

  -21 < -20 < -19

So, we see that ...

  -21 is <em>left</em> of -20 on the number line

  -19 is <em>right</em> of -20 on the number line
