First number = x
Third number = x - 7
Second number = 2(x - 7)
x + 2(x - 7) + x - 7 = 107
x + 2x - 14 + x - 7 = 107
Collect like terms.
4x - 21 = 107
4x = 128
x = 32
First number = 32
Second number = 50
Third number = 25
Total = 107.

Answer:

(x - 8) + 3x + x = 107

x - 8 + 3x + x = 107

5x - 8 = 107

5x = 115

x = 23, SO...

The first number is 23-8, which is 15

The second number is 3 x 23, which is 69

The third number is 23

15 + 69 + 23 = 107 CHECK!

I need help don’t understand
nadya68 [22]
If f(x)=x+1 and then x became 2, you would have the function f(x)=3. So basically for that function you would be going up three over 1. That function is already g(x)=4x. If X became 2, you would have g(x)=8x. The rate of up 8 and then over one. Because of that, g(x) would be higher

What is z if -1/3+2z=-5/6?
Wittaler [7]
-1/3+2z=-5/6
-2/6+2z=-5/6
Add 2/6 to both sides:
2z=-3/6
2z=-1/2
Divide both sides by 2
z=-1/4

Hope this helps :)

2.32 x 10⁵ = 232000

This can be solved by multiplying 2.32 to the product of 10 multiplied 5 times.

10⁵ = 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 *10
10⁵ = 100,000

2.32 x 100000 = 232000
