Mathematics

3 0

Answer: 17, 19, 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Three consecutive odd numbers: x, x+2, x+4 (since odd numbers occur every other number)

Just to show you that the numbers are x, x+2, and x+4, just say x is 13 then x+2 is 15 and x+4 is 17 (3 consecutive odd numbers)

Now the second equation:

3x = 2(x+4) + 9

three times smallest number (which is x) is equal to 2 times the largest number (x+4) plus 9

Now solve

3x = 2(x+4) +9

3x = 2x + 8 + 9

3x = 2x + 17

x = 17

x+2 = 19

x+3 = 21

Use the drawing tools to form the correct answers on the graph. Plot the zeros of this function: f(x) = (x – 1)(x – 7).
beks73 [17]

Set each set of parentheses to 0 and solve for the x’s

X-1= 0

Add 1 to both sides

X =1

X-7 = 0

Add 7 to both sides

X = 7

The zeros are 1,7

To plot them make dots at (1,0) and (7,0)

step 2: multiply the prime factors they have in common

30 = 2 x 3 x 5

36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
