Solution:

Let's name the three consecutive numbers as y, y + 2, and y + 4.

Note that:

=> Equation formed: 3(y) = 2(y + 4)

Solve the equation to find the three consecutive numbers.

3(y) = 2(y + 4)
=> 3y = 2y + 8
=> 3y - 2y = 8
=> y = 8

The numbers are 8, 10, and 12.

Pls help me calculate the inverse of y equals 2x over x-7

NeTakaya

Y = 2x/x-7

x = 2y/y-7

xy - 7x = 2y

-7x = 2y - xy

-7x = y(2-x)

y = -7x / 2-x

y = 7x / x-2

f-¹(x) = 7x / x-2

Nikitich [7]

This could be wrong but the remaining pieces he can cut is 3 because if you divide 400 with 8 , it’s 35 as the answer, so then subtract 35 with 15 till you can subtract 15 from it

kykrilka [37]

using Pythagorean triplet

$\\ \sf\longmapsto P^2=H^2-B^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x^2=19.6^2-15.4^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x^2=384.16-237.16$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x^2=147$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\sqrt{147}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=12.1$
