Answer:

The smallest integer is -27 and the integers are -27, -26, and -25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent this with:

x + x - 1 + x - 2 = -78

Simplify.

3x - 3 = -78

Add 3 to both sides.

3x = -75

Divide both sides by 3.

x = -25

So, the first integer is -25.

Subtract two to get the smallest integer.

-25 - 2 = - 27

1 3 9 10 TIME REI 25: Consider the function y = asin(bx), where a &gt; 0 and b&gt;0. Which change compresses the graph verticall
Lelu [443]

Making the value of 'a' smaller, but still positive, will make the graph be compressed vertically.

Let's say a = 1 is the initial value. If we update it to a = 0.5, then the graph will be half as tall as it used to be, so it's compressed by a factor of 1/0.5 = 2.

The value of b determines the period of the sinusoidal function.
