It is given that Joe was being exposed to an electromagnet shrinking machine. Because of this his height started decreasing .
Given,
The decrease was at a constant rate per second.
In 1.5sec, the height is decreased by 120cm.
So,
Variation per second =
Change in each second would be with negative sign indicate's decrease .
Hence, Answer is “-80” .
Hope it's helpful to you.

Answer: 3x + 6 -4x = 1
Simplify to -x + 6 = 1 because 3x - 4x = -1x
Consider expression
First, you can factor it:

Since x is integer number, then you can see that x-1 is previous integer number (x-1 is 1 unit smaller than x).
Therefore, x-1 and x are two consecutive integers. When you have two consecutive integers, one of them is always even and one is always odd. Multiplying even integer number by odd integer number you always get even integer number.
Thus,
is always even.
Answer:
To answer items such as this, we directly substitute the a + 2 to the all the x's in the function such that,
f(a + 2) = (3 + a + 2) / (a + 2 - 3)
Simplifying the function generated above,
f(a + 2) = (5 + a) / (a - 1)
