define the 3 numbers

smallest number = x

middle number = x + 2

largest number = x + 4

write the equation

sum of the smallest number and twice the middle number

\begin{gathered} x+2(x+2) \\ x+2x+4 \\ 3x+4 \end{gathered}

20 more than the largest number

\begin{gathered} x+4+20 \\ x+24 \end{gathered}

equal the expressions

\begin{gathered} 3x+4=x+24 \\ 3x-x=24-4 \\ 2x=20 \\ x=\frac{20}{2} \\ x=10 \end{gathered}

the numbers should be 10, 12 and 14

\begin{gathered} 10+2\cdot(12)=14+20 \\ 10+24=34 \\ 34=34 \end{gathered}

Find the value of kk for which the constant function x(t)=kx(t)=k is a solution of the differential equation 5t3dxdt+2x−2=05t3dx
uranmaximum [27]
Given the differential equation

5t^3 \frac{dx}{dt} +2x-2=0

The solution is as follows:

5t^3 \frac{dx}{dt} +2x-2=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow5t^3 \frac{dx}{dt} =2-2x \\  \\ \Rightarrow \frac{5}{2-2x} dx= \frac{1}{t^3} dt \\  \\ \Rightarrow \int {\frac{5}{2-2x} } \, dx = \int {\frac{1}{t^3}} \, dt \\  \\ \Rightarrow- \frac{5}{2} \ln(2-2x)=- \frac{1}{2t^2} +A \\  \\ \Rightarrow\ln(2-2x)= \frac{1}{5t^2} +B\\  \\ \Rightarrow2-2x=Ce^{\frac{1}{5t^2}} \\  \\ \Rightarrow 2x=Ce^{\frac{1}{5t^2}}+2 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=De^{\frac{1}{5t^2}}+1

As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per week plus $2 per sale. This week you want your pay to be at least $100. What is the minim
DENIUS [597]
Let s represent the number of sales, and t the total pay
the equation to represent this situation is t = 2s + 50
so set t to 100, and solve for s

100 = 2s + 50
50 = 2s
25 = s

you need to make at least 25 sales
