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

then replace the q with 6 so it would be: r+6-r

combined both of these to get

2+6-2

which would equal to 6

add the 2 and the 6 to get 8

then subtract 2 to get 6

What is the percent error of 7cm
antoniya [11.8K]
The answer is 7.14% 

Your ruler measuring centimeters has lines for each centimeter. The rule for error is anything between 6.5 and 7.5 is considered 7cm. So the degree of error is plus or minus .5cm. 
Your aim is 7cm so you divide your error of .5 by your target measurement. .5/7= 7.14 percent.
