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!

A cubical water tank can contain 1000/125 cubic meters of water. Find the length of a
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

2 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a cube of sidelength L has a volume:

V = L^3

Here, we know that the volume of water that the cube can hold is:

(1000/125) m^3

Then the volume of our cube is exactly that:

V = (1000/125) m^3

Then we have the equation:

L^3 = (1000/125) m^3

Which we can solve for L

L = ∛((1000/125) m^3 ) = (∛1000/∛125) m

Where we used that:

∛(a/b) = ∛a/∛b

Solving the cubic roots, we get:

L = (10/5) m = 2m

The length of the side of the water tank is 2 meters.
