Assume the second number is x, then the other two are x - 2, x + 2

So x-2 + x + x + 2 = 51

-> 3x = 51

-> x = 17

(1+5/6)(1-5/6)<br><br> I don't understand it
ipn [44]
(a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2

(1+5/6) (1-5/6) = 1^2 - (5/6)^2 = 1 - 25/36 = 36/36 - 25/36 = (36-25)/36 = 11/36

11/36 is your answer

Pls help im pretty sure its easy i just forgot
dalvyx [7]

the average can be calculated by adding the scores together and then dividing by the number of scores.

we can set up an equation:

let x = test score needed on next test

(72+72+80+x)/4 = 71

multiply both sides by 4

72+72+80+x = 284

add like terms

224+x=284

subtract 224 from both sides

x=60

she will need a 60 for her average to be 71

Answer:

1.) a. i)  f(4) = 2, ii.) f(-3)= -5  b.)  x = -5, x = 2,  c.)  choice(2) -3 < x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Each problem

1.) a.) i.)   we see f(4) = 2  on the graph  the line goes through point (4, 2)

   a.)  ii.)  f(-3) = -5

1.) b.)  There are only 2 zeros for f(x)  which intersect the x-axis in only 2 points.

 x = -5  and x = 2  are the only 2 zeros.

1.) c.)  only for   -3 < x < 5  is the function  f(x) increasing.

  choice (2.)

Billy, Kip, and Patrick earned a combined 14 points during their team's game. Billy earned 5 points and Kip earned 6 points. Whi
irina [24]
Well, we can find the direct answer by taking Billy and Kip's points and subtracting it from the total combined points. This will give us 11, which means Patrick earned 3 points. 

The equation we can use to represent this is <em>5 + 6 + y = 14.

1. 5 + 6 + y = 14
2. 11 + y = 14
3. y = 14 - 11
4. y = 3

</em>Hopefully, this helps! =)<em>

A boat is anchored 2.2 km due south of a lighthouse. Along the shore, the town of Beachton is 16.8 km due east of the lighthouse
pogonyaev

Answer:

16.9 km

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached, we can see that the problem forms a triangle.

So, to find the distance(d) from the boat to Beachton , we can make use of Pythagoreas theorem.

Thus;

d² = 16.8² + 2.2²

d² = 282.24 + 4.84

d² = 287.08

d = √287.08

d = 16.9434

Approximating to the nearest tenth, we have;

d ≈ 16.9 km
