The integers are x, x + 2 and x + 4

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 36
3x + 6 = 72
3x = 36 - 6 = 30
x = 30/3 = 10

The least numbers is 10
Therefore, the numbers are 10, 12 and 14

Taxi B
9miles £1.25+£18.00=£19.25 (the same)

^^^
They would have to drive 9 miles for the taxi to cost the same.

Hope this helped, this is the longest way to work it out but also the simplest.

Determine whether each function is linear or quadratic. Identify the quadratic, linear, and constant terms. g(x)=-2 x²-3(x-2)
valentinak56 [21]

   The function g(x) is a quadratic function:

  • Its quadratic term is -2x²
  • Its linear term is - 3x
  • Its constant is 6

<h3>What are functions?</h3>

 Functions are algebraic expressions that have at least two variables, in order to make their visual representation through a graph and evaluate their behavior.

 This problem deals with linear or quadratic functions, and these differ in the degree of the exponent of the variable:

  1 : linear

  2 : quadratic

  The function:

g(x) = -2x² - 3(x- 2).

g(x) = -2x² - 3x + 6 , we have a quadratic function.

  • Its quadratic term is -2x²
  • Its linear term is - 3x
  • Its constant is 6

Suppose you have $10,000 to invest. Which investment yields the greater return over 7 years: 6.6% compounded monthly or 6.7% com
joja [24]

Answer:

C) $10,000 invested at 6.7% compounded quarterly over 7 years yields the greater return.

Step-by-step explanation:

-We determine the effective interest rate in both scenarios and use it to calculate the investment's value after 7 years.

#Given n=7yrs, P=$10,000 and i=6.6% compounded monthly:

i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.066/12)^{12}-1=0.06803\\\\\therefore A=P(1+i_m)^n\\\\=10000(1.06803)^7\\\\\approx \$15,852.00

#Given n=7rs, P=10000, i=6.7%

i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.067/4)^{4}-1=0.06870\\\\\therefore A=P(1+i_m)^n\\\\=10000(1.06870)^7\\\\\approx \$15,921.75

Hence, the investment has the largest value($15,921.75) when the interest rate is compounded quarterly.
