The sum of the first and third of three consecutive integers is 136. find the three even integers

The three even integers are 66, 68 and 70

Solution:

Let the three consecutive even integers be x, x + 2, x + 4

Let the first integer be x

Let the second integer be x + 2

Let the third integer be x + 4

Given that, sum of the first and third of three consecutive integers is 136

Sum of first and third integer = 136

x + x + 4 = 136

2x + 4 = 136

2x = 136 - 4

2x = 132

x = 66

Thus the consecutive integers are:

first even integer = x = 66

second even integer = x + 2 = 66 + 2 = 68

third even integer = x + 4 = 66 + 4 = 70

Thus the three even integers are 66, 68 and 70

answer: 43/157

this is the answer and if you try to prove me wrong your a meanie

the given growth  function for the length of the fish (cm) is

f(m) = 5(1.07)m = 5.35m

where 

m = months

at the end of the study, the length is 9.19 cm. the  time for conducting the study is determined as

5.35m = 9.19

m = 1.7178 months

part a.

the study was performed over a time period  of about 1.72 months. therefore  the domain for  plotting the function is 0 < = m < = 1.72.

note:

if growth  continues at this rate for up to m months, then the domain would be 0< =m< =m.

part b.

the growth function is a linear function.

when m=0, f=0.

therefore the initial growth is zero, which represents the y-intercept.

part c.

assume that the growth function is valid for 0< =m< =9.

the average rate of change of the function is the slope of the linear function, which is 5.35 cm/month.
