Answer:
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
x = Number of gold coins in a chest
1/2x = Number of gold coins taken by the captain
1/4x = Number of gold coins taken by Sally
3 = Number of gold coins left
2. How many coins were in the chest at the start?
Let's write the following equation to solve for x:
1/2x + 1/4x + 3 = x
2x + x + 12 = 4x (Lowest Common Denominator is 4)
4x - 2x - x = 12 (Like terms)
x = 12
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Answer:
Suppose an aerial freestyle skier goes off a ramp with her path represented by the equation y=−0.024(x−25)2+40. If the surface of the mountain is represented by the linear equation y=−0.5x+25, find the distance in feet the skier lands from the beginning

Let's say "n" is a natural number. {1,2,3,4,..} To ensure we have an even number we will multiply "n" by 2. Two times any number will make an even number.
consecutive even numbers are like; 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 .. etc. Add +2 to the previous number to get the next consecutive.
1st even number = 2n
2nd even number = 2n + 2
3rd even number = 2n + 4
twice the first number (2n) is 20 more then the second (2n + 2).
2(2n) = 2n + 2 + 20
4n = 2n + 22
4n - 2n = 22
2n = 22
n = 11
Now use n = 11 to find the 3 consecutive even numbers.
1st even number = 2(11) = 22
2nd even number = 2(11) + 2 = 24
3rd even number = 2(11) + 4 = 26
22, 24, 26
