The product of three consecutive integers is 3360. What is the sum of the three integers?

Mathematics

Tom [10]2 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

let the integer be x .

three consecutive integers : x, x+1, x+2.

according to the problem,.

Let the first of the 3 consecutive numbers be X.

Therefore the second number is (X + 1)

The third number is therefore (X + 2)

The product of the 3 consecutive numbers is:

( X )( X + 1 )( X + 2 ) = 3360 Equation( 1 )

Expanding Equation ( 1 ) gives

X³ + 3X² + 2X - 3360 = 0 Equation (2)

Solve Equation (2 ) which gives the following values for X

X1 = 14

X2 = - 8.5 + i (12.951834)

X3 = - 8.5 - i (12.951834).

the numbers are 14,15,16.

sum is 14+15+16 = 45.

hope this helps you.

In a triangle the first angle is 10 degrees more than the second angle. The third angle is equal to the sum of first 2 angles .
timurjin [86]
First angle= x+10
Second angle = x
Third angle = x+x+10 or 2x+10

X+10+x+2x +10=180
4x+20=180
Subtract 20 from both sides
4x=160
Divide both sides by 4
X=40
First angle =50
Second angle=40
Third angle =90

Find three solutions of the equation.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

3rd group of possible answers is the correct set

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the three points in the 3rd line of possible answers is a solution of the given equation, as can be verified by substitution:

If x = -2, y = -8(-2) = +16

If x = 3, y = -8(3) =  -24

If x = -4, y = -8(-4) = +32

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is given by p = 2l + 2w, where p = perimeter, l = length, and w = width. solve the form
TiliK225 [7]
Perimeter formula
p = 2l + 2w

I reverse left-right side
2l + 2w = p

Move 2l to the right
2l + 2w = p
2w = p - 2l

Move 2 to the right
2w = p - 2l
w = (p - 2l)/2

Summary
p = 2l + 2w
2l + 2w = p
2w = p - 2l
w = (p-2l)/2
