Answer:

They are 46, 48, 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

An even number is a multiple of

2

, then can be written as 2n. The next even number after

2

n

is

2

n

+

2

and the following is

2

n

+

4

.

So you are asking for which value of

n

it you have

(

2

n

)

+

(

2

n

+

2

)

+

(

2

n

+

4

)

=

144

I solve it for

n

6

n

+

6

=

144

n

=

138

6

=

.

The three numbers are

2

n

=

2

⋅

23

=

46

2

n

Why do the probability of an event and the probability of its complement add up to 1

Ariel made cupcakes to sell. 2/3 of them were chocolate chip,25% of the reminder was strawberry and the rest were 90 vanilla cup
Anton [14]

Answer:

Let x be the total number of cupcakes.

Chocolate chips =

\frac{2}{3} x

Strawberry =

\frac{1}{4}  \times  \frac{1}{3}  \\  =  \frac{1}{12} x

Vanilla =

x -  \frac{2}{3} x -  \frac{1}{12}x \\  =  \frac{1}{3} x -  \frac{1}{12} x \\   =  \frac{1}{4} x

given

\frac{1}{4} x = 90

x = 90 \div  \frac{1}{4}  \\  = 90 \times 4 \\  = 360

a)Number of Chocolate chip Cupcakes =

\frac{2}{3}  \times 360 \\  = 240

b)Number of Strawberry cupcakes =

\frac{1}{12}  \times 360 \\  = 30

A city is building a fence around a rectangular playground if the perimeter of the playground is 104 feet and the length of one
34kurt

Answer:

20 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + w)

Let the width be w

=> 104 = 2(32 + w)

=> 104/2 = 32 + w

=> 52 = 32 + w

=> 52 - 32 = w

=> 20 = w

Hence z

Width of playground is 20 ft
