Answer: The smallest number is 118.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that the consecutive numbers are x-1, x, x+1
The sum of the three consecutive numbers is 357
(x-1) + x + (x+1) = 357
So, 3x = 357
x = 357 ÷ 3
x = 119
The 3 consecutive numbers are: 118, 119 and 120
The smallest out of the 3 is clearly 118.
Hope this helps!
Yes it does not, i want my free points
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the equations in the form y = mx + b
If the equation contains exponents then it is non-linear, if not then it is linear.
2xy = 3
This graph forms a curve so it is non-linear
y = 1x³ + 5
This equation is non-linear because it contains an exponent
y = x/3
y = 1/3x + 0
This equation is linear ( no exponent(s) )
2y = 1/2x
y = 1/4x + 0
This equation is linear ( no exponent(s) )
You can write it without exponent
3x*3x or 9x*x
