You have a 1:2 chance of guessing the right answer, if you have to guess between the two.
3 odd integers have a property that they average up to the middle large one. Let's say we have 3, 5, and 7. 3 is 2 less than 5 and 7 is 2 more than 5. so when you add them it equals 2 times 5.
After we know that, the sum of 3 odd integers is just 3 times the middle number. ex. 3+5+7 = 3 times 5 = 15
Then we know the some number times three = 225. we find out that the middle number is 75, so the other two are 73 and 77

Answer:
- c = 2
- segments 10, 8, 6 (top down)
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of top and bottom bases is twice the midsegment.
(c² +6) +(c² +2) = 2(4c)
2c² -8c +8 = 0 . . . . . . . . . subtract 8c
2(c -2)² = 0 . . . . . . . . factor
c = 2 . . . . . . the value that makes the binomial be zero
The value of c is 2; the segment lengths (top-down) are 10, 8, 6.
1,300 because 8 is over 5 and it rounds the 100th place ,(which is 2), to become a 3 which makes the answer 1,300.
