Any odd number can be expressed by 2n+1.
For example,
2n+1=111
2n=110
n=110/2=55
means that 111 is 2n+1 for n=55
Thus if an odd number is 2a+1, the next few numbers are as follows:
2a+1, 2a+2, 2a+3, 2a+4, 2a+5
So 2a+1, 2a+3 and 2a+5 are 3 consecutive odd numbers.
Back to our problem:
three consecutive odd numbers whose sum is 63 are:
(2n+1)+(2n+3)+(2n+5)=63
6n+9=63
6n=63-9=54
n=54/6=9
2n+1=2*9+1=18+1=19, the 2 next odd numbers are 21 and 23
Answer: 19, 21, 23
Answer:
y = 0.5x + 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I just graphed the points with GeoGebra. Hope this Helps!
It would be the last one. The dots must be open and x must move to the right.
Use the percent proportion
21 x
—— = ——
100 300
to solve :
21 x 300 = 6300
6300 ÷ 100 = 63

<h2>Answer </h2>
The length of UC is 18
<h2>Explanation </h2>
First we are going to find the length of JN; then we are subtracting from it the length of JU plus the length of CN.
We can infer from our picture that JN is 82 + 105, so JN = 187
We can also infer that JU = JH + HU
JU = 22 + 96
JU = 118
We can also infer that CN = 51
Now we can fin the length of UC:



We can conclude that the length of UC is 18.
