Answer: 6, 8, 10, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x is the number, the 4 numbers would be

x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6

so the two smallest numbers would be x and x + 2

and the two largest numbers would be x+4 and x+6

now set up an equation

x(x+2) = (x+4)(x+6) - 72

now FOIL

x^2 + 2x = x^2 + 6x + 4x + 24 - 72

combine like terms

x^2 + 2x = x^2 + 10x -48

subtract x^2 from both sides

2x = 10x - 48

subtract 2x from both sides

0 = 8x - 48

add 48 to both sides

48 = 8x

divide both sides by 8

6 = x

so the four numbers, x, x+2, x+4, and x+6 when you plug in x are equal to

6, 8, 10, 12

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3/6 x 8

= ( 3 x 8 ) / 6

= 24 / 6

4/7 x 2

= ( 4 x 2 ) / 7

= 8 / 7

9/2 x 3

= ( 9 x 3 ) / 2

= 27 / 2

8/5 x 7

= ( 8 x 7 ) / 5

= 56 / 5

3/9 x 5

= ( 3 x 5 ) / 9

= 15/9

7/4 x 4

= ( 7 x 4 ) / 4

= 28 / 4

6/2 x 6

= ( 6 x 6 ) / 2

= 36 / 2

8/3 x 9

= ( 8 x 9 ) / 3

= 72 / 3

9/4 x 8

= ( 9 x 8 ) / 4

= 72 / 4

5/3 x 6

= ( 5 x 6 ) / 3

= 30 / 3

2/7 x 3

= ( 2 x 3 ) / 7

= 6 / 7

8/4 x 7

= ( 8 x 7 ) / 4

= 72 / 4

6/4 x 2

= ( 6 x 2 ) / 4

= 12 / 4

Answer:

-9<x≤2

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the x values

If we look at the line, we see a closed circle when x=2, so x is less than or equal to 2

The other circle is open and is at -9, so x is greater than -9

-9<x≤2
