Answer:

k+(k+2)+(k+4)=87

The largest integer is 31.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let <em>k</em> be equal to the smallest of the integers.

Let (<em>k</em>+2) be the next odd integer.

Let (<em>k</em>+4) be the final odd integer.

We're given that the sum of these three integers is 87. Construct an equation:

k+(k+2)+(k+4)=87

Combine like terms:

k+k+2+k+4=87\\3k+6=87\\3k=81\\k=27

Therefore, the smallest integer is 27. Because the largest integer is k+4, the largest integer is therefore 31.

I hope this helps!

Solve the equation log^7b&gt;2
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

b > 12.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question we have to solve the inequality equation given for b (An unknown variable}

Now, the equation is (\log b)^{7} > 2

⇒ \log b > 2^{\frac{1}{7} }

We are taking the base of the log here is 10.

So, 10^{(\log b)} > 10^{2^{\frac{1}{7} } } {Since 10^{\log x} =x and e^{\ln x} = x}

⇒ b > 12.71 (Approximate) (Answer)
