The problems are:
1. Find three consecutive integers if the product of the second and third integer is 78 more than 9 times the first.
2. The product of two integers is 64 and their difference is 12. Find the two integers.
3. An object is dropped from the top of the Empire State Building in New York, which is approximately 1444 ft tall. The equation that gives the distance of the object has fallen is d=16t(squared), where d is the distance in feet and t is the time in seconds. How long has the object been falling when it has traveled 400 ft? When does the object hit the ground?
4. The length of the base of a triangle is three times the height. The area of the triangle is 24sqcm. Find the base and height of the triangle.
