Answer:

The third number in this sequence is 63.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first odd number be <em>x</em>.

Since our sequence are consecutive odd numbers, the second term must be (<em>x</em> + 2) and the third (<em>x</em> + 4). If we only add one, we will get even numbers.

Their sum is 183. Hence:

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=183

Solve for <em>x</em>. Combine like terms:

3x+6=183

Subtract six from both sides:

3x=177

And divide both sides by three. Hence:

x=59

Therefore, our sequence is 59, 61, and 63.

The third number in this sequence is 63.

Note: If we do not get an odd number or if we get a fraction for <em>x</em>, we can conclude that no three consecutive integers sum to 183.

Answer:

61

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 6 = 183

3x = 177

x = 59

(x+2) = (59+2) = 61

Answer:

2.

A. (P+h)(x)

2x/x+4 (x-1) + x/x-1 (x+4)

2x^2-1/x^2-4

+

X^2+4/x^2-4

= 3x^2+3/x^2-4

B. (F-g)(x)

X^2-7x+6-x - 6

= x^2 -8x

C. (Fg)(x)

(X^2-7x+6)(x-6)

= x^3-13x^2+48x-36

D. (H/p)(x)

X/x-1 / 2x/x+4

X/x-1 / x+4/2x

= X^2+4x/2x^2-2x

3.

A. (F+g)(3)

X^2+1 + x-4

3^2+1 + 3-4

10 -1

= 9

B. (f-g)(0)

X^2+1 - x-4

0+1 -0-4

1-4

= -3

C. (Fg)(-k)

(X^2+1) (x-4)

(-k^2+1) (-k-4)

K^3+4k^2-k-4

D. (F/g)(k-2)

X^2+1 /x-4

K-2^2+1 / k-2 -2

= K^2-4k+5 / k-4
