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}

Which table of ordered pairs represents a linear function? x y −6 26 0 3 6 26 12 101 x y −6 −3 0 3 6 1 12 2 x y −6 −3 0 3 6 9 6
Afina-wow [57]

In each table, the x-values differ by 6. A linear function will also have a constant difference of y-values. Only the 4th table has that.

(x, y) = (-6, -3), (0, 2), (6, 7), (12, 12)

_____

An increase in x by 6 produces an increase in y by 5. The slope of this linear function is 5/6. In slope-intercept form, the equation is y = (5/6)x + 2.
