9514 1404 393

Answer:

  56, 60, 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle of the three numbers is their average: 180/3 = 60. The other two will be 4 more or less than this.

The numbers of interest are 56, 60, 64.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

For "consecutive integer" problems, it is often useful to work with the average of the numbers. The average will be the middle number of an odd number of numbers (as here), or will be halfway between the two middle numbers if their number is even.

Even if you bother to write equations, it can work to do that in terms of the average value (middle number): (x -4) +(x) +(x +4) = 180 in this case.

Find the y-intercept of a line parallel to 8x – 2y = 12 and passes through the point (5, 3).
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

-17

Step-by-step explanation:

8x -2y= 12

<em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>whole</em><em> </em><em>equation</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>:</em>

4x -y= 6

<em>Rewrite the equation into the slope-intercept form (y=mx+c, where m is the gradient while c is the y-intercept).</em>

-y= -4x +6

y= 4x -6

Thus, gradient of given line= 4.

Since parallel lines have the same gradient, gradient of line= 4.

y= 4x +c

<em>To find the y-intercept of the lone, substitute a pair of coordinates.</em>

When x=5, y=3,

3= 4(5) +c

3= 20 +c

c= 3 -20

c= -17

Thus, the y-intercept of the line is -17.
