Let the first number be = x
Then the second number = 2x
The third number = 2x - 5
Their sum = 55
This can be written in an equation as =
x + 2x + 2x - 5 = 55
= x + 2x + 2x = 55 + 5 ( transposing -5 from LHS to RHS changes -5 to +5 )
= x + 2x + 2x = 60
= 5x = 60
= x = 60 ÷ 5 ( transposing ×5 from LHS to RHS changes ×5 to ÷5 )
= x = 12
The first number = x = 12
The second number = 2x = 2 × 20 = 24
The third number = 2x - 5 = 24 - 5 = 19
Therefore , the three numbers are 12 , 24 and 19 .
Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
By counting grid squares, we see the library is 5 miles north and 6 miles east of Ashley's house. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can find the straight-line distance to be
.. d = √(5^2 +6^2)
.. = √(25 +36)
.. = √61 . . . . . miles
.. ≈ 7.81 . . . . miles
Answer:
Angle F, or 1; see below
Step-by-step explanation:
When two triangles are congruent, everything about them is equal. Angle C is congruent F because they are in the same position on the triangle.
