Formula is f(x) - ab^x. so we would need to get b. we would have to change the percentage to a decimal. so shift it 2 times to the right. which is 0.015 = b. hope this helps :D
Zero
5x5=25
25+190=215
215-215=0
If n stands for the smallest number, then the second and third number would be (n + 1) and (n + 2)
Write the equation based on what are given
the sum of three numbers = 72
n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 72
Then, solve the equation
n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 72
3n + 3 = 72
3n = 72 - 3
3n = 69
n = 69/3
n = 23
The smallest number is 23
M=3 bc x(5) +3M(3•3) = 14 aka 9 + 5.
