Let the second no. be x.
First no. = x+6
Third no. = 3x
Sum= 81

Therefore,
x + x + 6 + 3x = 81
=> 5x + 6 = 81
=> 5x = 81-6
=> x = 75/5
=> x = 15

Answer:
So, the first no. is (15 + 6) 21
The second no. is 15
The third no. is (3*15) 45

Hope it helps u!

Lesson: 1.08Given this function: f(x) = 4 cos(TTX) + 1Find the following and be sure to show work for period, maximum, and minim
Ber [7]

The given function is

f(x)=4\cos \text{(}\pi x)+1

The general form of the cosine function is

y=a\cos (bx+c)+d

a is the amplitude

2pi/b is the period

c is the phase shift

d is the vertical shift

By comparing the two functions

a = 4

b = pi

c = 0

d = 1

Then its period is

\begin{gathered} \text{Period}=\frac{2\pi}{\pi} \\ \text{Period}=2 \end{gathered}

The equation of the midline is

y_{ml}=\frac{y_{\max }+y_{\min }}{2}

Since the maximum is at the greatest value of cos, which is 1, then

\begin{gathered} y_{\max }=4(1)+1 \\ y_{\max }=5 \end{gathered}

Since the minimum is at the smallest value of cos, which is -1, then

\begin{gathered} y_{\min }=4(-1)+1 \\ y_{\min }=-4+1 \\ y_{\min }=-3 \end{gathered}

Then substitute them in the equation of the midline

\begin{gathered} y_{ml}=\frac{5+(-3)}{2} \\ y_{ml}=\frac{2}{2} \\ y_{ml}=1 \end{gathered}

The answers are:

Period = 2

Equation of the midline is y = 1

Maximum = 5

Minimum = -3

PLEASE HELP 7TH GRADE 100 PTS!!!
MariettaO [177]

f(x) = 5x is linear. Just a straight line with a slope of +5. So if the intervals are both a difference of 1, then the average rate of change will be the same.

f(x2) - f(x1) over x2 - x1. That's the formula for average rate of change.

So for Section A:

f(x) = 5x, (0,1)

[f(1) - f(0)]/(1-0)

= [5(1) - 5(0)]/1

=(5)/1

=5

Do the same for section B and you'll get 5 as well.

I hope this helps you because I have no clue if my answer is right

The straight line 3y = 5x + h - 6 intersect the x-axis at 4k, where h and k are constants. explain h in terms of k
inn [45]

When a function intersects with the x-axis, it's y value must be 0. That means when the straight line intersects with the axis, it's at the point (4k,0), so plugging those numbers into our original equation yields:

0=20k+h-6 \implies\\ 6=20k+h \implies \\ 6-20k=h
