<h3>Answer :- </h3>
- Let the three consecutive numbers be x -2 , x and x + 2
- Their sum = ( x - 2 ) + ( x + 2 ) = 3x
- This is the given equal to 54
- 3x = 54 or x = 54/3
- x = 18
<em>Thus </em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>required </em><em>numbers </em><em>are </em><em>1</em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>0</em><em> </em>
Rewrite the parabola in standard form and use this formula to find the vertex (h,k).
= (2,-1)
For the answer to the question above asking, how much gas will you have to buy i<span>f you drive 50 miles each week and your car gets 25 miles to the gallon with gas costing $4.00 per gallon?
</span>The car will use 2 gallons of gas per week at $4 per gallon so you will have to buy $8 per week.
i hope my answer helped you.
Here is the method for solving that equation:
Step #1: Write the equation:
-15x = 0
Step #2: Divide each side of the equation by -15 :
<u>x = 0</u>
