Let the three consecutive equals:
x, x+1, x+2
sum:
x+(x+1)+(x+2) = 36
3x + 3 = 36
x+1 = 36/3
x+1 = 12
x=12-1
x=11
Answer:
Calculate the Difference Quotient for f(x)=2x^2-3
Find f(x+h) and f(x), and plug these values into the difference quotient formula.
<h2><em><u>
4x+2h</u></em></h2>
B - 7x = a - b
Subtract b from both sides.
-7x = a - 2b
Divide both sides by -7.
x =
