Answer:

The middle integer is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let <em>x</em> be the smallest of the three consecutive integers.

Let <em>x</em>+1 and <em>x</em>+2 be the next consecutive integers. This makes <em>x</em>+1 the middle integer.

We're given that the third integer subtracted from the sum of the first two integers equals 9. We can use this to construct an equation:

(x)+(x+1)-(x+2)=9

Combine like terms:

x+x+1-x-2=9\\x+x-x+1-2=9\\x-1=9\\x=10

Therefore, the smallest integer is 10.

Because the middle integer is <em>x</em>+1, the middle integer is 11.

I hope this helps!

Billy received a raise after his first year on the job to $45,000 from his initial salary of $42,400. What was his real raise st
solong [7]

Billy get 5.9% raise after completing first year.

<h3>What is PERCENTAGE?</h3>

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100.

Here, Billy's initial salary = $ 42,500

After raise, salary become $ 45,000

Change in salary = Raised salary - Initial salary

                            = 45000 - 42500

                            = $ 2500

% Change = change / initial salary  X 100

                  = 2500 / 42500 X 100

                  = 0.0589 X 100

                  ≈ 5.9 %

Thus, Billy get 5.9% raise after completing first year.
