Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other into two equal segments. Therefore:
3x - 1 = 2(x + 1)
Solve for x
3x - 1 = 2x + 2
Collect like terms
3x - 2x = 1 + 2
x = 3
Also:
5y + 1 = 6y - 1
Collect like terms
5y - 6y = -1 - 1
-y = -2
Divide both sides by -1
y = -2/-1
y = 2
Sum means add
sum of the 3 is
n+n+1+n+2
it add to 57
n+n+1+n+2=57
3n+3=57
minus 3 both sides
3n=54
divide both sides by 3
n=15
n+1=16
n+2=17
the integers are 15,16, and 17
Answer: 9? I’m not sure but it seems like it’s 9 as it mentions it in the problem
