Answer; 17, 18 and 19


Explanation:

Number = x , x + 1 , x + 2


x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 54

3x + 3 = 54

3x = 51

x = 17


x = 17

x + 1 = 18

x + 2 = 19

Answer:

15.

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=50\\0.2x+0.1y=6\end{array}\right.

16. 10 ml of 20% saline and 40 ml of 10% saline

Step-by-step explanation:

A chemist takes x ml of 20% saline and y ml of 10% saline. In total, he takes

x + y ml that is 50 ml, so

x + y = 50.

There are  0.2x ml of salt in x ml of 20% saline and 0.1y ml of salt in 10% saline. There are 0.12\cdot 50=6 ml of salt in 50 ml of 12% saline. Thus,

0.2x+0.1y=6

15. We get the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=50\\0.2x+0.1y=6\end{array}\right.

16. Solve this system. From the first equation:

x=50-y

Substitute it into the second equation:

0.2(50-y)+0.1y=6\\ \\10-0.2y+0.1y=6\\ \\-0.1y=6-10\\ \\-0.1y=-4\\ \\y=40\\ \\x=50-y=50-40=10

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The coordinates of the image of vertex P after reflection is  (-7, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we are to reflect the point P across the x-axis, we have;

Reflection of a point across the x-axis gives;

When a point is reflected across the x axis, the y-coordinate changes to the opposite sign while the x-coordinate remains unchanged  such that (x, y) becomes (x, -y)

Therefore, given that the point P = (-7, -4), we have;

Coordinates of point P before reflection Reflection = (-7, -4), coordinates of point P after reflection Reflection P' = (-7, 4).
