2. Find three consecutive numbers such that five times the largest number is 17 less than three times the sum of the
smallest and median number

Hi there!

Your answer is:

Smallest number: 24

Median number: 25

Largest number: 26

Step-by-step explanation:

three consecutive numbers:

n, n+1, n+2

5(n+2)= (n+1+n)3 -17

5n+10= (2n+1)3-17

5n+10= 6n+3 -17

5n+10= 6n-14

-6n

-n+10= -14

-10

-n= -24

/-1

n= 24

This is your number. Now, plug this back into your previous equations

24, 24+1, 24+2

Simplify

Smallest number: 24

Median number: 25

Largest number: 26

Hope this helps

if you mean

then it's c. 8, -7/3

but if you mean

then it is

81 seats

step-by-step explanation:

if you multiply 0.65 times 125 then you get 81.5 seats. well since you can't have half of a seat you have to round down and get 81 seats in the no children zones. that leave 44 seats outside of the no children zone.
