Answer:

The largest integer is 29.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive positive integers are x, x+1 and x+2.

The square of sum of squares of three consecutive positive integers is 2354 such that,

x^2+(x+1)^2+(x+2)^2=2354\\\\x^2+x^2+2x+1+x^2+4+4x=2354\\\\3x^2+6x+5=2354\\\\3x^2+6x- 2349=0

It is a quadratic equation whose solution is given by :

x = 27 and x = -29

First positive integer = 27

Second positive integer = 27+1 = 28

Third positive integer = 27+2 = 29

Hence, the largest integer is 29.

Linear Equations In Any Form. Help ASAP Please
Ronch [10]

The answer is y = 3/4 x + 2



<em>Explanation:</em>


Basically, the formula for a linear equation is y = mx + b

b = y-intercept

mx = slope


slope = rise/ run (pos.)

it can also be fall/ crawl (neg.)


In the graph the line meets at the y-int. at 2, the line rises 3 and goes right 4 each time.

State if the given functions are inverses. f(x) = 1/x + 3 g(x) = 4/x + 2
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

  they are not inverses

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1) = 1/1 +3 = 1 +3 = 4

g(4) = 4/4 +2 = 1 +2 = 3 ≠ 1

If the functions were inverses, we would have g(f(1)) = 1, which we do not.

The given functions  are not inverses.

_____

The same would be true if your functions were

  f(x) = 1/(x+3) and g(x) = 4/(x+2)

  f(1) = 1/(1+3) = 1/4

  g(1/4) = 4/(1/4 +2) = 4/(9/4) = 16/9 ≠ 1
