Using a system of equations, it is found that the three consecutive even integers are -8, -6 and -4.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the three consecutive even integers are represented by:

n, n + 2, n + 4

The first integer is two times the third, hence:

n = 2(n + 4)

2n + 8 = n

n = -8

Thus:

n = -8

n + 2 = -8 + 2 = -6

n + 4 = -8 + 4 = -4

The integers are -8, -6 and -4.

Answer:

8,10,12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Smallest Integer = 2x - 2

Middle integer = 2x

Largest integer = 2x + 2

All three are every

3(2x - 2) = 2(2x + 2)

6x - 6 = 4x + 4                Add 6 to both sides

6x = 4x + 6 + 4               Combine

6x = 4x + 10                    Subtract 4x from both sides

6x-4x = 10                      Combine

2x = 10                           Divide by 2

x = 10/2

x = 5

2x - 2 = 2*5 - 2 = 8

2x =                     10

2x+2                    12

3*8 = 2*12

24 = 24

So the answers are correct.

Blake said 4/5+1/3 =5/8 does his answer make sense explain. please help
Tatiana [17]
Hey there!

The answer is no because whenever you add or subtract fractions, you find the common denominator(the bottom of the fraction)

Corret way:
The common denominator is 15 (5*3)
Multiply numerator(top) and the denominator by 3 
4/5*3*3= 12/15
Multiply numerator and the denominator by 5
1/3*5/5= 5/15
So the equation is now
12/15+5/15= 17/15 or 1 2/15

Hope this helps! :)

30 points I'm struggling Find the equations of each line and show all of your work. (1, 5) (2, 6) (1, 1) (3, -8) (2, -3) (5, -2)
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

1.(1,5) and (2,6) , 6-5/2-1=1/1 m=1 ,y=1x+b

5=1(1)+b 4=b

y=x+4

2.(1,1) and (3,-8) -8-1/3-1=-9/2 m=-9/2 ,y=-9/2x+b

1=-9/2(1)+b b=11/2

y=-9/x+11/2

3.(2.-3) and (5,-2) m=1/3 ,y=1/3x+b

-3=1/3(2)+b -3=2/3+b

-3-2/3=b

 b=-11/3

y=1/3x-11/3

4.(2,5)and (4,3) m=-1 y=-1x+b

5=-1(2)+b 5=-2+b

5+2=b

b=7

y=-1x+7

6.(-3,-5) and (-1,-3) m=2/2=1 y=1x+b

-5=1(-3)+b -5=-3+b

-5+3=b

-2=b

y=1x-2
