8 0

Answer: 7,8,9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be a, a+1 and a+2. Therefore, based on the question, this will be:

= (a + 1)(a + 2) = 72

a² + 2a + a + 2 = 72

a² + 3a + 2 - 72 = a

a² + 3a - 70 = 0

a² + 10a - 7a - 70 = 0

a(a + 10) - 7(a + 10)

a - 7 = 0

a = 7

Since a = 7

a + 1 = 7+1 = 8

a + 2 = 7+2 = 9

The numbers are 7,8 and 9

There are two different maps of ohio. The scale on the first map is 1 cm to 10 km. The distance from cleveland to clncinnati is
Ivanshal [37]

1. To answer this question we must keep on mind that we already have the distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati.

2. They tell us that it is 40 centimeters on the first map.

3. If on the first map 1cm = 10km then:

40cm = 10km * 40 = 400km

4. Then the distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati is 400 kilometers.

5. On the second map 1cm = 50km

6. Then we want to know how many centimeters represents 400 kilometers on the second map. Therefore:

400/50= 8

 The answer is: 8 centimeters.

A share of ABC stock was worth $70 in 2011 and only
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

5v + 32y = 350

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the year counting starts in 2011 and represented by y.

So, the share of ABC stock value was $70 at y = 0. And in the year 2016 i.e. y = (2016 - 2011) = 5, the share worth $38.

If there is a linear relationship between the number of years since 2011 i.e. y and the value of the share of ABC stock i.e. v, then we can write the equation of this situation as

\frac{v - 70}{70 - 38} = \frac{y - 0}{0 - 5}

⇒ 5v - 350 = - 32y

⇒ 5v + 32y = 350 (Answer)

Distribute and simply 7-2(x-5)+3x
KonstantinChe [14]

The given expression is

7-2(x-5)+3x

First, we use the distributive property to get rid of the parenthesis.

7-2x+10+3x

Then, we reduce like terms. -2x and 3x are like terms, also 7 and 10 are like terms.

3x-2x+10+7=x+17<h2>Therefore, the simplest form of the given expression is <em>x + 17</em>.</h2>
