Three consecutive integers have a sum of -42. Write and solve an equation to find the three integers.​

Answers

Answer 1
Let the first integer be x.

Let the second integer be x + 1 .

Let the third integer be x + 2 .

According to the question

x + ( x + 1 ) + ( x + 2 ) = -42

Opening the brackets and simplifying :

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -42

3x + 3 = -42

Now , solving equation :

[tex]\bf \rightarrow \: \:3x \: + \: 3 \: = \: -42[/tex]

[tex]\bf \rightarrow \: \: 3x \: = \: -42 \: - 3[/tex]

[tex]\bf \rightarrow \:3x \: = \: -45 \: [/tex]

[tex]\bf \rightarrow \:x \: = \: \frac{ - 45}{ \: 3} \\ [/tex]

[tex]\bf \rightarrow \:x \: = \: \cancel\frac{ - 45}{ \: 3} \: \: ^{ - 15} \\ [/tex]

[tex]\bf \rightarrow \:x \: = \: - 15[/tex]

[tex]{\boxed{ \Large{ \red{ \rm{ \underline{ Now \: \: substitute}}}}}}[/tex]

[tex]\bf \implies \: \:x \: = \: - 15[/tex]

[tex]\bf \implies \: \:x \: + \: 1 \: = \: - 15 \: + \: 1 \: = \: - 14[/tex]

[tex]\bf \implies \: \:x \: + \:2 \: = \: - 15 \: + \: 2 \: = \: - 13[/tex]

-15 , -14 and -13 are the three consecutive integers.

Maria's luggage travels 36 m in 3 minutes. What is the speed of the conveyer belt in kilometers per hour?

Answers

Answer:

0.72 km per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the speed in meters per hour. Create a proportion where x is this speed:

[tex]\frac{36}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{60}[/tex]

3x = 2160

x = 720

So, the speed is 720 meters per hour. Convert this to kilometers per hour by dividing 720 by 1000, since there are 1000 meters in a kilometer:

720/1000

= 0.72

So, the speed of the conveyer belt is 0.72 km per hour

Find AC , given that line AD is the perpendicular bisector of BC

Answers

Answer:

AC = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by calculating AD. This can be obtained as follow:

AB = 29

BD = 17

AD =?

AB² = BD² + AD²

29² = 17² + AD²

841 = 289 + AD²

Collect like terms

841 – 289 = AD²

552 = AD²

Take the square root of both side

AD = √552

Finally, we shall determine AC. This can be obtained as follow:

DC = BD = 17

AD = √552

AC =.?

AC² = DC² + AD²

AC² = 17² + (√552)²

AC² = 289 + 552

AC² = 841

Take the square root of both side

AC = √841

AC = 29

Identify the segments that are parallel, if any, if ∠DCB and ∠CDA are supplementary.

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]\angle[/tex]DCB and [tex]\angle[/tex]CDA are supplementary.

We have to identify the parallel segments if [tex]\angle[/tex]DCB and [tex]\angle[/tex]CDA are supplementary.

Supplementary angles: If the angles are supplementary then the sum of two angles is 180 degrees.

Therefore,

[tex]\angle DCB+\angle CDA=180^{\circ}[/tex]

Therefore, angle DCB and angle CDA are interior angles .

Because CA is a transversal line and sum of interior angles is 180 degrees.

When the sum of interior angles formed between two lines  and on same side of transversal line is 180  degrees. Then the lines are parallel.

Therefore, angle DCB and angle CDA are formed between line AD and BC.

Hence, AD is parallel to BC.

Mr Rai sale a watch for Rs 2035 a profit of 10% how much money has he paid to buy the also find his profit amount​

Answers

Answer:

He paid Rs 1,850 to buy the watch

Profit = Rs 185

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price = x

Profit = 10% of x

Selling price = Rs 2035

Profit = Selling price - cost price

10% of x = 2035 - x

0.1x = 2035 - x

0.1x + x = 2035

1.1x = 2035

x = 2035 / 1.1

x = 1,850

Cost price = x = Rs 1,850

Profit = 10% of x

= 10% of 1,850

= 0.1 × 1850

= 185

Profit = Rs 185

Answer:

m∠B = 43°

b = 26.1

c = 38.3

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying triangle sum in the given triangle,

47° + 90° + m∠B = 180°

137° + m∠B = 180°

m∠B = 43°

By applying sine ratio to the angle measuring 47°.

sin(47°) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

            = [tex]\frac{28}{c}[/tex]

c = [tex]\frac{28}{\text{sin}(47^{\circ})}[/tex]

c = 38.28

c ≈ 38.3

By applying cosine rule,

cos(47°) = [tex]\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

             = [tex]\frac{b}{c}[/tex]

             = [tex]\frac{b}{38.3}[/tex]

b = 38.3[cos(47°)]

b = 26.1

He then walked 1/6 mile home.

now, we have to find that,

About how many miles did Lyon walk

so, we need to add the both distance

i.e.  3/4 + 1/6

so, we have,

3/4 -> 9/12

1/6 -> 2/12

so, we get,

9 + 2 = 11

= 9/12 + 2/12

=11/12

Read the poem "The Snake" by Emily Dickinson.

A narrow fellow in the grass
Occasionally rides;
You may have met him, — did you not,
His notice sudden is.

The grass divides as with a comb,
A spotted shaft is seen;
And then it closes at your feet
And opens further on.

He likes a boggy acre,
A floor too cool for corn.
Yet when a child, and barefoot,
I more than once, at morn,

Have passed, I thought, a whip-lash
Unbraiding in the sun, —
When, stooping to secure it,
It wrinkled, and was gone.

Several of nature's people
I know, and they know me;
I feel for them a transport
Of cordiality;

But never met this fellow,
Attended or alone,
Without a tighter breathing,
And zero at the bone.

Which statement best describes Dickinson’s use of figurative language in the final stanza?

The following figures are parallelogram. find X and y​

Answers

Answers:  x = 3 and y = 13

==============================================================

Explanation:

For any parallelogram, the diagonals always cut each other in half.

This means the pieces that are y+5 and 18 cm long are equal

y+5 = 18

y = 18-5

y = 13

And so are the pieces that are x+y and 16 cm long

x+y = 16

x+13 = 16

x = 16-13

x = 3

Side note: the term "bisecting" is often used when saying "cutting in half".
