We are looking for the value of the second integer, so let's mark it as X.

Then three consecutive integers are : (x-1) , x , (x+1)

The sum of the first and the third integers (X-1) + (X+1)

Five less than three times the second integer 3X - 5

Now we can write an equation and solve it for X

 (X-1)+(X+1)= 3X - 5 simplifying left part

 2X = 3X -5 subtract 2X from both sides

0 = X-5

X=5

SO THREE CONSECUTIVE INTEGERS ARE 4, 5, 6

Answer:

The three consecutive integers are 12, 13 & 14

Explanation:

Let the three consecutive integers be x, x + 1, x + 2

According to the question,

If sum of the first and third integers is increased by 8, the result is 5 less than triple the second integer.

\therefore x + x + 2 + 8 = (x + 1) × 3 - 5

2x + 10 = 3x + 3 - 5

2x + 10 = 3x - 2

10 + 2 = 3x - 2x

x = 12

So, The three consecutive integers are 12, 13 & 14

For example, if a wave has a frequency of 120 Hz and a wavelength of 5m, it would have a speed of 600 m/s.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The speed of the wave at the given wavelength and frequency is 60 m/s.

The given parameters;

wavelength of the wave, λ = 0.5 m

frequency of the wave, f = 120 Hz

The speed of the wave is calculated by applying general wave equation as shown below;

v = fλ

where;

v is the speed of the wave

v = 120 x 0.5

v = 60 m/s

Thus, the speed of the wave at the given wavelength and frequency is 60 m/s.

Virty [35]

As a result of a fracture to the distal part of the shaft of the humerus, the only part that will not be completely paralyzed is; B: flexor carpi radialis

<h3>What will be the effect of getting paralyzed?</h3>

As a result of a fracture to the distal part of the shaft of the humerus, the only part that will not be completely paralyzed is; flexor carpi radialis.

The above is correct because flexor carpi radialis is a muscle of the human forearm that acts to flex and (radially) abduct the hand and as such flexor carpi is a flexor of the wrist. This part does not get completely paralyzed.

The options are;

A: Flexor carpi ulnaris

B: Flexor carpi radialis

C: Palmaris longus

D: Flexor pollicis longus

E: Flexor digitorum superficialis
