Let's say the first number is "a"
the next consecutive can just be "a+1" and the next, you guessed it, "a+2"
the two smaller ones are a and a+1, the larger one is a+2
now, the product of "a" and "a+1" equals 5 times "a+2" but less by 5
thus a(a + 1) = 5(a + 2) - 5 <----- solve for "a"
Answer:
none of the above? sorry not too sure
Answer: hewo, there! your answer is below
x= -5/4
or x= 8
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1: Subtract 27x+40 from both sides.
4x2−(27x+40)=27x+40−(27x+40)
4x2−27x−40=0
Step 2: Factor left side of equation.
(4x+5)(x−8)=0
Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.
4x+5=0 or x−8=0
hope this helps you
have a great Day
