Answer:

The numbers are 28, 29 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

We consider the first number as X, the second consecutive number is X+1 and the third is X + 2. The sum of these 3 numbers is 87, so:

X + X+1 +X+2 = 87    

3x + 3 = 87

We substract 3 on both sides of the equation

3x + 3 - 3 = 87 - 3

3x = 84

We divide by 3 on both sides

x = 28

This means our numbers are 28, 29 and 30

Are the equations -2x=10 and -5x=25 equivalent
Natasha_Volkova [10]
To equations are equivalent if and only if they have the same solution set.

Solve for both of the equations.

-2x = 10
x = -5 <-- Divide both sides by -2

-5x = 25
x = -5 <-- Divide both sides by -5

Both have the solution -5.

So, yes both are equivalent.
