The numbers are 65, 67, and 69

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We need to find 3 consecutive odd integers.

Consecutive numbers are numbers that follow each other (ex. 1, 2, 3, 4)

We're given that 5 times the first number + 4 times the second + 3 times the third = 800

Let's make the first number x

Since the second number is consecutive to the first and odd, it will be x+2 (Why? Well, let's say x is 5. In that case, x+1=6, which is even. However, x+2=7)

Therefore, the third number is x+4 (once again, if x is 5, x+3=8, but x+4=9)

5 times the first number is 5x

4 times the second is 4(x+2)

3 times the third is 3(x+4)

And of course, that equals 800

As an equation, it'll be:

5x+4(x+2)+3(x+4)=800

open the parenthesis

5x+4x+8+3x+12=800

combine like terms

12x+20=800

Subtract 20 from both sides

12x=780

Divide by 12 on both sides

x=65

The first number is x, so the first number is 65

The second number is x+2, or 65+2=67

The third number is x+4, or 65+4=69

Hope this helps!

Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12
