Answer:

28 + 30 +  42   = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

s=small number

s+ (s+2) + (s+2 +12) =100

3s +16 = 100

3s =84

s = 28

small 28

mediam   28+2 = 30

large    30+12 = 42

<h2>Answer:</h2>
  • The largest number is: 42
  • The middle number is: 30
  • and the smallest number is: 28
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let the largest number be x.

Let the middle number be y

and let the smallest number be z.

Now, it is given that:

Three numbers have a sum of 100.

This means that:

     x+y+z=100-------(1)

Also,

The difference between the two larger numbers is 12.

i.e.

x-y=12

i.e.

x=12+y----------(2)

Also

The difference between the two smaller numbers is 2.

i.e.

y-z=2

i.e.

z=y-2---------(3)

On putting the value of x and z from equation (2) and equation (3) into equation (1) we have:

12+y+y+y-2=100

i.e.

10+3y=100

i.e.

3y=100-10

i.e.

3y=90

i.e.

y=90/3

i.e.

y=30

Hence, x=30+12

i.e. x=42

and

z=30-2

i.e.

z=28

I have 15a but I need 15b and 14
Naily [24]
14. For a prism, the volume is given by
.. V = Bh . . . . . . . . where B is the area of the base, and h is the height of the prism

For a pyramid, the volume is given by
.. V = (1/3)*Bh . . . . where B is the area of the base, and h is the height of the pyramid

The volume is proportional to the area of the base. If the dimensions of the base decrease linearly to zero at the height of the geometry as they do for pyramids and cones, then the volume formula includes a factor of 1/3.


15b. The volume of a pyramid is 1/3 that of a prism with the same base area and height.
