Lets define a=1st number, b=2nd number, and c=3rd number

We know that a+b+c=126

We also know that the second number is 6 more than the first, so we can represent this as b=a+6

We also know that the third number is 3 times the first which can be represented as c=3a

We can plug these new values into our original equation and get:

a+(a+6)+(3a)=126

2a+6+3a=126 COMBINE LIKE TERMS

5a+6=126

5a=120

a=24

Our first number is 24.

Our second number is 6 more than our first number, so the second number is 24+6=30

Our third number is 3 times the first number, so the third number is 3(24)=72

We can check by plugging these numbers in for a, b, and c in our original equation

a+b+c=126

24+30=72=126

126=126

Answer 2

The numbers are 26, 20, and 80.

What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

Three numbers:

First = a

Second = b

Third = c

Now,

a + b + c = 126 ____(1)

c = 4b ____(2)

b = a - 6 _____(3)

From (1), (2), and (3) we get,

a + (a - 6) + 4b = 126

a + a - 6 + 4b = 126

2a + 4b = 126 + 6

2a + 4b = 132

2a + 4(a - 6) = 132

2a + 4a - 24 = 132

6a = 132 + 24

6a = 156

a = 26

Now,

a = 26

b = a - 6 = 20

c = 4b = 4 x 20 = 80

Thus,

The numbers are 26, 20, and 80.

Answers

Answer:

It's the third one down for both of them.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. first count the spaces from each intersection, starting with down. #1 has a slope of 2/3. Since it's leaning to the left, it's a negative. The only one with -2/3 is the third option down.

2. Again, look at the slope. this one is 2/1 (or just 2), and is leaning to the left, so is negative. Since there are multiple with -2 as the slope, we then look at the y-intercept. It's -1. The only answer that lines up perfectly with what we have is the third one down.

The ratio of boys to girls in a class is 3:4. There are 35 students in the class. How many students are boys?

Answers

Answer:

15 boys and 20 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since we cant simplify 3:4 we will leave it just like that.

2. 3x+4x=35

3. We add them both to give us 7x=35

4. We divide by 7 to get x by itself which results in 35/7=5.

x=5

5. Now we found x we can create 2 seperate soulutions:

3(5)=

and 4(5)=

Therefore there are 15 boys and 20 girls in the class. This makes sense because 15/20 reduced is 3 over 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]2x+7-6x=23[/tex]

[tex]-4x+7=23[/tex]

[tex]-4x=16[/tex]

[tex]x=-4[/tex]

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+7−6x=23

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x+7−6x=23

2x+7+−6x=23

(2x+−6x)+(7)=23(Combine Like Terms)

−4x+7=23

−4x+7=23

Step 2: Subtract 7 from both sides.

−4x+7−7=23−7

−4x=16

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x

−4

=

16

∆GHI is an isosceles triangle with a vertex angle H If the m∠H=80°, then find the m∠I.

Answers

Answer:

m∠I = 50 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal

So in this case, since H is a vertex;

m∠I + m∠H + m∠G = 180

m∠I = m∠G = x

2x + 80 = 180

2x = 180-80

2x = 100

x = 100/2

x = 50
