The sum of three numbers is 62. the second number is equal to the first number diminished by 4. the third number is four times the first. what are the numbers? which three expressions could be used to represent the numbers?

The numbers are 11, 7, and 44.

I couldn’t give you the expressions because I didn’t know if that was multiple choice

Step-by-step explanation:

Right out what you know

3 numbers=62

For this we will let the first number equal x, kinda a place holder until we get the answer.

2nd=X-4

3rd=4x

Now to make clear what you are adding together

1st number: x

2nd number: x-4

3rd number:4x

The sum to all 3 numbers:62

The equation:

x+x-4+4x=62

Combine like terms

6x-4=62

Add four to both sides to get rid of the four

6x=66

Divide both sides by 6 to get x by itself

x=11

Now take 11 and plug it back into the beginning information we had.

1st number=11

2nd number=11-4=7

3rd number=11 times 4= 44

All 3 numbers=62

Check your work

11+7+44=62

18+44=62

62=62

As you can see the numbers are correct.

i dont know sorry
