Answer:
214
Step-by-step explanation:
The set up would be x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854, naturally as the numbers are consecutive. Solving for x:
x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854,
x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 854,
4x + 1 + 2 + 3 = 854,
4x + 6 = 854,
4x = 854 - 6 = 848,
x = 848/4 = 212
The third number then should be 212 + 2 = 214

Answer:
Using the equation y = abx , substitute both of your given points into that equation.
2 = ab2 and 4 = ab3 Solve each equation for a.
2⁄b2 and 4⁄b3 = a Therefore, 2⁄b2 = 4⁄b3
Cross multiply: 2b3 = 4b2 Divide both sides by b2
2b = 4 a = 2/4 = 1/2
b = 2
y = 1 (2)x
