The sum of 3 consecutive odd numbers is 69. Find the numbers. solve the question in step-by-step

The question is related to an arithmetical sequence where common difference is 2.

(a-2) +a + (a+2) =3a=69

a=23

So three odds are

21 23 25

you should at least use a calculater

step-by-step explanation:

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
