The product of three consecutive numbers is 21,924. What is the smallest number out these numbers?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Natasha_Volkova [10]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the middle number be x.

(x - 1)(x)(x + 1) = 21,924

You can solve that equation, or you can use logic.

The 3 numbers are going to be close to the cubic root of 21,924.

cubic root of 21,924 = 27.988 or approx 28.

Try 27, 28, 29

27 * 28 * 29 = 21,924

Answer: 27

Help with fractions of a whole number
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

22 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you're asking about question 2

To find a fraction of a whole number you divide by the bottom number and multiply by the top number. If 2/3 are kids tickets then 1/3 are adult tickets so you divide by 3 and multiply by 1

66 \div 3 = 22 \times 1 = 22

Which equation does not represent a direct variation?
tatuchka [14]
Okay I think there has been a transcription issue here because it appears to me there are two answers. However I can spot where some brackets might be missing, bear with me on that.

A direct variation, a phrase I haven't heard before, sounds a lot like a direct proportion, something I am familiar with. A direct proportion satisfies two criteria:

The gradient of the function is constant s the independent variable (x) varies

The graph passes through the origin. That is to say when x = 0, y = 0.

Looking at these graphs, two can immediately be ruled out. Clearly A and D pass through the origin, and the gradient is constant because they are linear functions, so they are direct variations.

This leaves B and C. The graph of 1/x does not have a constant gradient, so any stretch of this graph (to y = k/x for some constant k) will similarly not be direct variation. Indeed there is a special name for this function, inverse proportion/variation. It appears both B and C are inverse proportion, however if I interpret B as y = (2/5)x instead, it is actually linear.

This leaves C as the odd one out.

I hope this helps you :)

Karim wants to buy a shirt that normally sells for $46.50. It is on sale for One-third off. How much does Karim need to pay to b
Volgvan

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First I took the original price of the shirt (46.50) since it is going one third off I divided it by 3 (46.50/3=15.50)

I took away the one third I divided from it (46.50-15.50=31)

I got 31 dollars as my final answer.

Now Karim needs to buy the shirt for $31.

Divide the number 480 in a ratio of 3:5
Schach [20]

If it is a ratio of 3:5 you are dividing 480 into 8 parts (3+5).


So divide 480 by 8: 480/8 = 60


Then the ratio is (3x60):(5x60) or 180:300


To check it is correct, add up the two parts to see that they come to 480:


180+300 = 480. All good.


Hope this helps
