Answer:
The Consecutive number are 46 , 47 and 48 having sum as 141
The smallest number is 46
Step-by-step explanation:
• A consecutive numbers means number are in a sequence and are one after the another !
e.g. n , (n+1). Or 1 , 2 are consecutive numbers
• A consecutive even numbers differ by 2 because all even numbers are divisible by 2 !
• If the number is divisible by x we must had taken number as n , ( n + x ) ,
( n + 2x )
• Let the numbers be ( n - 1 ) , n and
( n + 1 )
Given ,the sum of numbers is 141
n - 1 + n + n + 1 = 141
3n = 141
n = 141/3
n = 47
So, the numbers are
n- 1 = 47 - 1 = 46
n = 47
n + 1 = 48
And , the smallest number is 46
• Verification :-
46 + 48 + 47 = 141
Which satisfies the given condition !!
Hence , verified !!
Basically Samantha makes six bracelets per hour, so:
After 1 hour she makes 6
After 2 hours she makes 12
After 3 hours she makes 18
After 4 hours she makes 24, therefor the answer is B
This can also be modelled by the equation B = 6t, where B is the number of bracelets and t is the number of hours, so:
B = 6(4) = 24
Answer:
p-q= -4
p=q-4
x^2 + px + q=0
=> x^2 + (q-4)x + q = 0
d= b^2-4ac
=(q-4)^2 - 4(1)(q)
= q^2 + 16 -8q - 4q
=q^2 -12q+16
given that D=16
q^2 -12q+16 = 16
=> q^2 -12q = 0
=> q^2 = 12q
=> q = 12q/q
=> q= 12
Therefore the value of q is 12 and the value of p is q-4 = 12-4= 8

Answer:
Leg side along the wall = x ft = 8 ft
The other leg side = 7+x ft = 7+8=15 ft
The Hypotenuse =9+x ft = 9+8 = 17 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, the shape of the pool is right triangle.
Let the leg side along the wall to be the x ft
Let the other leg side to be 7+x ft
Let the longest side/hypotenuse to be x+9 ft
Apply the Pythagorean relationship where the sum of squares of the legs equals the square of the hypotenuse
This means;

Expand the terms in brackets

collect like terms

solve for x in the quadratic equation by factorization

Taking the positive value of x;
x=8ft
Finding the lengths
Leg side along the wall = x ft = 8 ft
The other leg side = 7+x ft = 7+8=15 ft
The Hypotenuse =9+x ft = 9+8 = 17 ft
