Answer:

15,17,19

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's your solution

=> let the first number be x

=> then second and third number will be

(x + 2) and (x + 4)

=> now it's given that sum is 51

=> so, x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 51

=> 3x + 6 = 51

=> 3x = 51 - 6

=> 3x = 45

=> x = 45/3

=> x = 15

hence ,the following number are , 15,17,19

hope it helps

pav-90 [236]

Answer: You receive 14x+45 dollars for each gallon of cider that you sell.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: For selling each gallon of cider, the company receives x dollars.

You receive = Remaining amount

i.e. You receive $(Selling price - x)

By selling 15 gallons in 15x+45 dollars, you have received (15x+45)-x dollars

i.e. You received 15x+45-x dollars

i.e. You received 14x+45 dollars.

Hence, you receive 14x+45 dollars for each gallon of cider that you sell.

Brayden, Howard, and Vincent are on the football team. During a game, Brayden gains 1 less than 5 times the average number of ya

Gnoma [55]

Answer: If two pair is parallel then it has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let the number of gained yards by each player be y

For the case of Brayden:

Equation will be

$y=5x-1\\\\y-5x=-1$

For the case of Howard :

Equation will be

$y=5x+1\\\\y-5x=1$

For the case of Vincent :

$y=4x+5\\\\y-4x=5$

Since First two equations are parallel so it has no solution.

Reason:

$y-5x=1\\\\y-5x=-1\\\\\frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{b_1}{b_2}=\frac{c_1}{c_2}\\\\\frac{1}{1}=\frac{5}{5}\neq \frac{1}{-1}$

Hence, if two pair is parallel then it has no solution.
