Answer:
44, 45, and 46
Step-by-step explanation:
135-(x+1)=x+(x+2)
135-(x+1)=2x+2
135=3x+3
132=3x
x=44
So the first number is 44
Then just add 1 and 2 to get 45 and 46 as the second and third number.
Answer:
E
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line passing through the origin is
y = mx ( m is the slope )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂. y₂ ) = (8, 2) ← 2 points on the line
m =
=
= 
y =
x → E
This is a Pythagorean Theorem problem. We don't need to know how long the whole straw is.
3^2 + 10^2 = x^2
9 + 100 = x^2
109 = x^2
x = sqrt 109
