The smallest of the three consecutive integers is 24.

<h3>How to solve algebraic word problems?</h3>

Let the 3 consecutive integers be;

x, y and z

Thus;

y = x + 1

z = x + 2

Now, we are told that their sum is equal to 4 times the largest number minus 29. Thus;

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 4(x + 2) - 29

3x + 3 = 4x + 8 - 29

4x - 3x = 3 + 21

x = 24

Thus, we can conclude that the smallest of the three consecutive integers is 24.

Select the graph and the description of the end behavior of f(x) = x3 + 2.
Dmitry [639]
F(x)=x^3+2
we see the power is odd
the ends go in opsoite directions
we know that if the leadind coefient (number in front of highest power term) is positive, then odd powered polynomials go from bottom left to top right
and for even ones, it goes both up

for negative, odd ones go from top left to bottom right
for even, both go down

we gots
f(x)=1x^3+2
positive and odd, so it goes from bottom left to top right

as x approaches negative inifnity, y approaches negaitve infinity
as x approaches infinity, y approaches infinity
