The product of two consecutive even integers is 288 find the integers.

1 answer:

5 0

Using algebra
n and n+2 are the integers
n*(n+2)=288
n^2+2n=288
n^2+2n-288=0
288=2*2*2*2*2*3*3=(2*2*2*2)*(2*3*3)=16*18 and 18-16=2
factor(n+18)(n-16)=0
n+18=0
n=-18
n+2=-16
this is one solution
n-16=0
n=16
n+2=18
this is another solution
as you can see, it's just a matter of factoring 288using arithmetic...√288=16.97≈1716 and 18 are the integers (as well as -16 and -18)

If (-9, 2) is on the graph of Flx), which point must be on the graph of the

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

(2, - 9 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 2 is the output when - 9 is input to f(x)

Then reversing the procedure, that is the inverse gives an output of - 9 for an input of 2.

(- 9, 2) is a point on the graph of f(x), then

(2, - 9) is a point on the graph o the inverse function $f^{-1}$ (x)

Find the surface area of the cylinder to the nearest whole number. The figure is not drawn to

Anettt [7]

Answer:

correct option is 2187

Total surface area is 2,185.44 square inches.

lateral surface area is 640.56 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

radius of cylinder = 12 inches

height of cylinder = 17 inches

we will us value of pi as 3.14

surface area for cylinder consist of two part

1. lateral surface area which is gven by $2\pi rl$

where r is radius of cylinder and l is height of cylinder

Thus, lateral surface area for given cylinder is

$2\pi rl\\ =>2* 3.14*12*17\\=> 1281.12$

Thus, lateral surface area for given cylinder is 1281.12 square inches.

_________________________________

second part of surface area is area of two base (upper and lower) of cylinder.

area of base is given by area of circle $\pi r^2$

$area \ of \base = \pi r^2 = 3.14*12^2\\=>area \ of \base = 3.14*144 = 452.16$

This, area of base is for one base of cylinder

since there are 2 base

area of both base will be = 2* area of one base

= 2*452.16 = 904.32.

Thus, area of base is 904.32 sq. in.

_______________________________________

Total surface area of cylinder = area of two base+ lateral surface area of cylinder = 1281.12 square inches + 904.32 square inches

= 2,185.44 square inches.

Thus, total surface area is 2,185.44 square inches.

lateral surface area is 640.56 square inches

but option which is closest to calculated value is 2187.

Thus, correct option is 2187

___________________________________________

Note: this problem can be directly solved using formula

total surface area for cylinder = $2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rl$

Area of sector................................

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

A ≈ 25.1 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

the area (A) of the sector is calculated as

A = area of circle × fraction of circle

= πr² × $\frac{\frac{4\pi }{9} }{2\pi }$

= π × 6² × $\frac{\frac{4\pi }{9} }{2\pi }$

= 36π × $\frac{\frac{4\pi }{9} }{2\pi }$

= 18 × $\frac{4\pi }{9}$

= 2 × 4π

= 8π

≈ 25.1 cm² ( to the nearest tenth )
