3\ consecutive\ even\ numbers:\ 2x,2x+2,2x+4\\\\2x(2x+2)+40=(2x+4)^2\\\\
4x^2+4x+40=4x^2+16x+16\\\\
4x^2-4x^2+4x-16x=16-40\\\\-12x=-24\ \ |:(-12)\\\\x=\frac{24}{12}=2\\\\2x=2=4\\\\2x+2=6\\\\2x+4=8\\\\Numbers\ are\ 4,6,8.

Is 3.5 > or < or equal to 1/2
Sloan [31]
Simple, we know > sign is greater than sign and < sign means less than sign. We divide 1/2 and that gets us 0.5. 3.5 is greater than 1/2 so the answer would be 3.5>1/2

natita [175]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>There would be 173,535 lionfish after 6 years.</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>Since lionfish are considered an invasive species, with an annual growth rate of 67%, ya scientist estimates there are 8,000 lionfish in a certain bay after the first year, A) to write the explicit equation for f (n) that represents the number of lionfish in the bay after n years; B) determine how many lionfish will be in the bay after 6 years; and C) if scientists remove 1,200 fish per year from the bay after the first year, determine what is the recursive equation for f (n); the following calculations must be performed:</em>

<em></em>

<em>A)</em>

<em>8000 x 1.67 ^ n = f  </em>

<em>B)</em>

<em>8000 x 1.67 ^ 6 = X</em>

<em>8000 x 21.691961596369 = X</em>

<em>173,535.692770952 = X  </em>

<em>C)</em>

<em>(8000 - 1200 x 1 ^ n) x 1.67 ^ n = f</em>

<em>Therefore, there would be 173,535 lionfish after 6 years.</em>
