Assume the smaller one is x, then the other ones will be x+2 and x+4
x(x+2) + 2 = 5(x+4)
x^2 + 2x - 5x - 18 = 0
-> x^2 - 3x - 18 = 0
-> (x-6)(x+3) = 0
-> x = 6 or -3, since x must be positive, then x = 6
So the numbers are: 6, 8, 10
Answer:
28%
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>32*18=576 oz. </span>
<span>Store A offers 24-12 oz cans for $5.89. That means $5.89 gets you 288 oz. Store B offers 12-12oz cans for $3.79, so that means $3.79 gets you 144oz. </span>
<span>Store A is $5.89 per every 288 oz. You need 576 oz, which is double that. That means it will cost you twice as much as it would buying 24-12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$5.89*2=$11.78 </span>
<span>Store B is $3.79 for 144 oz. As previously stated, you need 576 oz, so you'll need to buy 4 12-packs of 12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$3.79*4=15.16 </span>
<span>So not only is Store A a better deal, but they'll save you $15.16-$11.78=$3.38 dollars. </span>
