14 = 31.7 - 3x
-17.7 = -3x <---- I subtracted 31.7 from both sides
5.9 = x <---- I divided both sides by -3
First integer = x
Second integer = x + 2
Third integer = x + 4
Since four times the first integer equals six more than the product of two and the third integer.
4x = 6 + 2(x + 4)
4x = 6 + 2x + 8
2x = 14
x = 7.
Hence,
First integer = x = 7
Second integer = x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
Third integer = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11.
hope this helps
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = -3x^3 + x^2 – 3 f(2) means that wherever you see a x, put in a 2.
f(2)= -3(2)^3 + (2)^2 - 3
f(2) = -3*8 + 4 - 3
f(2) = - 24 + 1
f(2) = - 23
