Question 933763: Jared wanted to find three consecutive even integers whose sum was 4 times the first of those integers. He let k represent the first integer, then wrote and solved this equation: k+ (k+1) + (k+2) = 4k. Did he get the correct answer? Complete the explanation.
Jared did not get the correct answer. The solution to his equation is k = ____, giving ___,___, and ___ as the three integers. However 3 and 5 are not even integers. He should have used the equation k + (k + ___) + (k+___) = 4k, which gives k =___ and the correct answer ___,___,___.
Help would be much appreciated

Question 934070: A toy rocket is launched from the ground level with an initial velocity of 96ft/s. After how many seconds will the rocket hit the ground?
In this problem, I understand that I have to make a parabola. This means that the 96ft/s will be the peak of the parabola and the x axis should mark the start and end point (when it hits the ground). However, I don't know how to make the algebraic expression that goes with it. If I can make the algebraic expression, I know that I have to use (-1)b/2a to find the x intercept, and then plug that number in to find the other x intercept.
Please help...
