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 .

s is how much he earned on Saturday
2d + 15 = s
The answer is 72.8. in order to solve this problem, you need to use the pythagorean theorem. the equation is c^2-b^2=a^2.
75^2-18^2=a^2
75 squared minutes 18 squared is 5301. then you need to find the square root of 5301.
the square root of 5301 is 72.8079666, rounding to 72.8.
