Answer:

The second number = 30

The first number = 25

The third number = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The second number = x

The first number = x - 5

The third number = 2(x - 5)

Total = 105

105 = x + (x - 5) + 2(x - 5)

105 = x + x - 5 + 2x - 10

105 = 4x - 15

105 + 15 = 4x

120 = 4x

x = 120/4

x = 30

The second number = x

= 30

The first number = x - 5

= 30 - 5

= 25

The third number = 2(x - 5)

= 2(30 - 5)

= 2(25)

= 50

a 120 watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour. if electricity costs 0.20 per kilowatt hour, how much doe
Allushta [10]
A 120 watt light-bulb is a 0.120 kilowatt light bulb.

In one hour, it uses 0.120 kilowatt-hour of energy.

If electrical energy costs $0.20 per kilowatt hour, then that light bulb costs

        (0.120 kilowatt-hour / hour) x (0.20 dollar / kilowatt-hour) =

                            (0.120 x $0.20 / hour)  =  

                                       $0.024 / hour  =  <span>2.4¢  per hour </span>

Abdul, while driving to school, computes the average speed for his trip to be 20 km/hr. On his return trip along the same route,
gulaghasi [49]
You need to find the total distance and the total time. The total distance is two times the distance to school, 2d.s=d/t=>t=d/sWhere s is speed, d is distance and t is time. So the time taken to get to school is:d/s1and the time taken to get back is:d/s2so the total time is:d/s1+d/s2=d(1/s1+1/s2)So, as speed = distance/time, divide the total distance by the total time:2d/d(1/s1+1/s2)=2/(1/s1+1/s2)=2/(1/20+1/40)=80/3≈26.7km/hr

The pair of inequalities is graphed in the attachment.

The first inequality graphs as a shaded area below the dashed line y=-x+5.

The second inequality graphs as a shaded area below the solid line y=2x-1.

The solution set is the doubly-shaded area below the point where the lines intersect.
