Answer:

 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the middle integer. Then the smallest is x-2 and the largest is x+2. Your requirement is that ...

  (x-2)/(x+2) > 2/3

  3x -6 > 2x +4 . . . . cross multiply

  x > 10 . . . . . . . . . . .add 6-2x

The smallest integer satisfying this requirement is x=11. The sum of the 5 integers is 5x = 55.

The smallest sum is 55.

Find the 75th term of the following6, 10, 14, 18,
enot [183]

Given the sequence:

6, 10, 14, 18,...

We will find the 75th term

The given sequence is an arithmetic sequence

Because there is a constant common differnce

d = 18 - 14 = 14 - 10 = 10 - 6 = 4

The first term = a = 6

The general formula of the arithmetic sequence is as follows:

a_n=a+d(n-1)

Where: n is the nth term

To find the 75th term, substitute with n = 75 and a = 6, d = 4

a_{75}=6+4\cdot(75-1)=302

So, the answer will be the 75th term = 302
