Answer:
23 is the smallest number
Step-by-step explanation:
Three consecutive numbers are numbers that come in a row. So if the first number is n then the next is n+1 and the following is n+2.
All together they add to 72.
So n + n+1 +n +2 = 72.
3n + 3 = 72
3n = 69
n = 23
The algebra tiles show two equal factors. They are (x + 4).
Then, the perfect square is the product of the two equal factors, (x + 4) * (x +4).
That is (x + 4)^2.
Then develop that perfect square to find the constant term.
(x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 8x + 16.
That means that the constant term needed to complete the trinomial is 16.
Answer: 16
Answer:
8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Because all 4 angles are congruent, the sides are proportional.
the scale factor is 5/30 = 1/6.
meaning x = 16(1/6)=8/3.
