Only doing ONE of them.

------------------------------------------------
2.
find four consecutive even integers such that four times the fourth decreased by one half the second is 9.
-----------------------------------------------

n, for any integer
The integers, n-4,n-2,n,n+2
4%28n%2B2%29-%281%2F2%29%28n-2%29=9
-
8%28n%2B2%29-%28n-2%29=18
8n%2B16-n%2B2=18
7n=0
n=0

The consecutive even integers:
-4, -2, 0, 2
