8, 10, 12

A helpful equation:
x+x+1+x+2 = 30

Combine like terms
3x + 3 = 30

Subtract 3 from each side
3x = 27

Divide each side by to isolate x
x = 9

x = 9. However, 9 is not an even number. Let’s subtract 1 from 9 to get the first even number.

The first number is 8. The best two even numbers after 8 are 10 and 12.

8 + 10 + 12 = 30, thus this is the sequence.

Answer:

here:

you can make an equation

x + ( x + 2) + (x + 4) = 30

then by combining like items you get

3x + 6 = 30

then solve

3x = 30 - 6 ; then 3x = 24 , and x = 8

so the three numbers are 8 ; 10 and 12.

Artemis seeks knowledge of the width of Orion's Belt, which is a pattern of stars in the Orion constellation. She has previously
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Orion's belt width is 184 light years

Step-by-step explanation:

So we want to find the distance between Alnitak and Mintaka, which is the Orions belts

Let the distance between the Alnitak and Mintaka be x,

Then applying cosine

c²=a²+b²—2•a•b•Cosθ

The triangle is formed by the 736 light-years and 915 light years

Artemis from Alnitak is

a = 736lightyear

Artemis from Mintaka is

b = 915 light year

The angle between Alnitak and Mintaka is θ=3°

Then,

Applying the cosine rule

c²=a²+b²—2•a•b•Cosθ

c² =736² + 915² - 2×, 736×915×Cos3

c² = 541,696 + 837,225 - 1,345,034.1477702404

c² = 33,886.85222975954

c = √33,886.85222975954

c = 184.0838184897 light years

c = 184.08 light years

So, to the nearest light year, Orion's belt width is 184 light years

What is csc (2π/3)? Explain.
masha68 [24]

we are given the expression csc (2 pi / 3 ) and is asked to evaluate the expression. According to the trigonometric identities, the inverse of cosecant (CSC) is sine (sin) function. hence using the calculator in radians mode, sin 2pi/3 is equal to 2/sqrt 3. Taking the reciprocal of the answer, the final answer is 2 sqrt3 over 3.
