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

=

23

.

The three numbers are

2

n

=

2

⋅

23

=

46

2

n

+

2

=

46

+

2

=

48

2

n

+

4

=

46

+

4

=

50

In two or more complete sentences, identify the parent function, and describe the transformations that were applied to
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformed of the function has been given as,

f(x) = \sqrt{(2x+6)}+3

     = \sqrt{2}(\sqrt{x+3})+3

Parent function of this transformed function = \sqrt{x}

Vertical stretch = By a factor of \sqrt{2}

Horizontal shift = 3 units to the left

Vertical shift = 3 units up

Now we can summarize these transformations as,

1). Parent function g(x) = \sqrt{x} has been vertically stretched by a factor of \sqrt{2}

2). Followed by the translations of 3 units left and 3 units up.

Which is the best first step when solving the following system of equations? x + y = 3. 4 x minus y = 7. Multiply the first equa
____ [38]

Answer:

just add the equation and solve it then the value of X could be found then put the value of X and the value of y can be found. Just like in the below

Step-by-step explanation:

X+y=3 ------------ equation 1

4x-y=7 ------------ equation 2

adding equation 1 and 2

X+y=3

+ 4x-y=7

-----------------

5x = 10

X = 10/5

X = 2

putting the value of X in equation 1

or, 2+y=3

or, y = 3-2

Thus, y = 1
