Assume the smaller one is x, then the other ones will be x+2 and x+4
x(x+2) + 2 = 5(x+4)
x^2 + 2x - 5x - 18 = 0
-> x^2 - 3x - 18 = 0
-> (x-6)(x+3) = 0
-> x = 6 or -3, since x must be positive, then x = 6
So the numbers are: 6, 8, 10
To find our solution, we can start off by creating a string of 27 boxes, all followed by the letters of the alphabet. Underneath the boxes, we can place 6 pairs of boxes and 15 empty boxes.The stars represent the six letters we pick. The empty boxes to the left of the stars provide the "padding" needed to ensure that no two adjacent letters are chosen. We can create this -
Thus, the answer is that there are
ways to choose a set of six letters such that no two letters in the set are adjacent in the alphabet. Hope this helped and have a phenomenal New Year!

Yes rational numbers are equal to integers.
Answer:
1) Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x
2)Combine 3.5 and 7.56
3)Subtract 11.06 from both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5 + 1.2(6.3 - 7x) = 9.38
Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x
3.5 + 1.2* 6.3 - 1.2 * 7x = 9.38
3.5 + 7.56 - 8.4x = 9.38
Combine 3.5 and 7.56
11.06 - 8.4x = 9.38
Subtract 11.06 from both sides
11.06 - 8.4x -11.06 = 9.38 - 11.06
-8.4x = -1.68
To find solution:
Divide both sides by (-8.4)
-8.4x/-8.4 = -1.68/-8.4
x = 0.02
18 feet = 18/3 yard = 6 yard
6 inches = 1/2 feet = 1/6 yard
Volumen = (6yar)(6yard)(1/6yard) = 6 cubic yard
Cost = 6 cubic yard * $42.00 / cubic yard = $ 252.00
Answer: the first option, 252.00
