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

What is the constant of proportionality in the equation?<br>y=5x<br>0<br>1<br>4 or <br>5
Ann [662]

Answer:

hope it helps...

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the constant of proportionality is k=5k=5

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=ky/x=k or y=kxy=kx

The value of the constant k is equal to the value of the slope

In this problem we have

y=5xy=5x ------> is a linear direct variation

The slope is m=5m=5

therefore

The value of the constant of proportionality is k=5k=5
