Step-by-step explanation:

first number=x

second number=x+2

third number=x+4

(x+2)(x+4)=35

x(x+4)+2(x+4)=35

x²+4x+2x+8=35

x²+6x+8=35

x²+6x=35-8

x²+6x=33

x²+6x-33=0

using that, you can find the first number,

then use the data to find the other two.

A museum has a wax sculpture of a historical village. The scale is 1.5:8. If the height of a hut in the sculpture is 5 feet, how

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Let us say that x is the real height of the original hut, therefore we can establish the equation:

5 : x = 1.5 : 8

5 / x = 1.5 / 8

Solving for x:

x = 5 * 8 / 1.5

x = 40 / 1.5
