Consecutive even integers =   x,  x + 2

(x - 3)(x + 2) = 24               Since width x, was decreased by 3.

If we test x = 6,    (6 - 3)(6 + 2) =   3*(8) = 24

So to    (x - 3)(x + 2) = 24,   x = 6 satisfies it.

The original rectangle = x,  x + 2 =   6,  6 + 2 =    6,   8

Original area = 6*8 = 48 square inches

Answer:

1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that 2^4 - 2^3 = 16 - 8 = 8 = 2^3

In a similar way 2^6 - 2^5 = 64 - 32 = 32 = 2^5.

So 2^99 - 2^98 = 2^98 ,  2^98 - 2^97 = 2^97 ,  2^97 - 2^96 = 2^96 and so on.

Therefore when we come to the last 2 terms we have 2^1 - 2^0 = 2 - 1

= 1 , so the answer is 1.
