Answer:

7, 11, 39 OR -26, 1, 77;

Step-by-step explanation:

Mumble. Let's call the first number 13k, which is obviously a multiple of 13.

The factor of 77 are easy to find. It's either 77 and 1, or 11 and 7.

Now two cases. If we consider negative multiples of 13 (ie, -39 is -3 times 13) we can use the first pair (77 and 1, who sum up to 78, and start taking 13 from it as many times as we need to get to our interval.

1st pass: 78-13 = 65 out

2nd pass: 65-13 = 52 in

3rd pass : 52 - 13 = 39 out

So a possible triplet is 77, 1 and -26.

Case two: we aren't allowed to take negative numbers, and 77 and 1 will bring out of our range already. Let's stick to 11 and 7, who sum up to 18. Again, let's keep adding 13 as many times as we need

1st pass: 18+13 = 31, no good

2nd pass: 31+13 = 44, out again

3rd pass: 44+13= 57, we're good!

4th pass: 57+13 = 70, too far.

So another possible triplet is 7, 11, 39.

The moment you allow the product of the second and third number to be rationals will open a whole new can of worm that isn't any close to be interesting or fun to explore.

A jar contains 6 red marbles numbered 1 to 6 and 4 blue marbles numbered 1 to 4. A marble is drawn at random from the jar. Find
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A

The marble is red. There are 6 red marbles out of ten. So the answer is

6/10 = 0.60

B

Red: 1 3 5

Blue: 1 3

So there are 5 ways that you can draw an odd number. The problem is that they are not evenly distributed.

Red: 1/2 * 3/6 = 1/4 = 0.25

Blue: 1/2 * 2/4 = 0.25

Red + blue = 1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2

You could have gotten 1/2 by taking 5/10 but that won't always work.

Beth normally cycles a total distance of 56 miles per week.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

She will cycle 85.169 miles in the third week.

(round if needed)

Step-by-step explanation:

56÷100=0.56 (this is 1%)

0.56 x 15 + 56 = 64.4 (you find 15% then add 56 (the original amount) because it's an increase of 15%)

repeat for the other 3 weeks

64.4÷100=0.644

0.644 x 15 + 64.4 = 74.06

74.06÷100=0.7406

0.7406 x 15 + 74.06 = 85.169
