Your numbers are 2, 3, 4.
The three consecutive numbers are x, x+1, x+2
The square of the first equals the third so x^2=x+2
Solve this quadratic as x^2-x-2=0
Factor into (x+1)(x-2)=0
So your answers are x=-1 and x=2
Since the question says they’re positive integers, use x=2
So the numbers are 2, 3, 4
The average value over the interval is the area under the curve divided by the width of the interval.
Area = 4*(6 -1) +5(8 -6) = 30
Width = 8 - 1 = 7
Average value = 30/7 = 4 2/7
18 feet 1 feet is equivalent to 12 inches
