Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smallest number be n,

then the three numbers are n, n+1 and n+2

Therefore, n+(n+1)+(n+2)=120

Collecting like terms,

n+n+n=120-1-2

3n=117

n=117/3

n=39

Therefore the numbers are 39,40 and 41.

And the smallest number is 39.

A typical middle-income household in 1980 earned $34,757. A similar household in 2009 earned $38,550. What was the relative incr
S_A_V [24]

Given conditions are :

In 1980's, a typical middle-income household earned=  $34,757

In 2009, a similar middle-income household earned= $38,550

And we have to find relative increase in income for these households from 1980 to 2009.

So first we will find the total increase in amounts.

38550-34757=3793

Relative increase = \frac{3793}{34757}*100

= 10.91% or rounding it off we get approx 11%.

Hence, the answer is 11%.

The geometry of the hybrid orbitals about a central atom with sp3d hybridization is:________
Lyrx [107]

For sp3d hybridized central atoms, the only possible molecular geometry is trigonal bipyramidal.

Hybridisation (or hybridization) is a process of mathematically combining two or more atomic orbitals from the same atom to form an entirely new orbital different from its components and hence being called as a hybrid orbital.

In this case, if all the bonds are in place, the shape is also trigonal bipyramidal.

In chemistry, a trigonal bipyramid formation is a molecular geometry with one atom at the center and 5 more atoms at the corners of a triangular bipyramid.

Bond angle(s): 90°, 120°

Coordination number: 5

Point group: D3h
