Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
These triangles are similar triangles, so there is a number that you can multiply the sides of TUV to find the side lengths of QRS. looking at the triangle, the similar sides are RS being similar to UV and RQ being similar to UT.
If RS~UV, then there is a ratio between them. 54/36=1.5. The ratio is 1.5.
RQ~UT, and by a factor of 1.5, so divide RQ by the scale factor. 24/1.5=16. UT=16=x+5.
x+5=16, subtract 5 from both sides.
x=11
Answer:
23, 25, 27
Step-by-step explanation:
It can be convenient to work "consecutive integer" problems by using a variable to represent the middle one.
__
<h3>setup</h3>
Let x represent the middle integer. Then (x-2) is the first of the three odd integers, and (x+2) is the third. The given relation is ...
2(x -2) +3x = 67 +2(x +2)
<h3>solution</h3>
5x -4 = 2x +71 . . . . . simplify
3x = 75 . . . . . . . . add 4-2x
x = 25 . . . . . . . divide by 3
The three integers are 23, 25, 27.
