The even integers are 10,12 and 14.

Concept:  An integer is colloquially defined as a number that can be written without a fractional component. For example, 21, 4, 0, and −2048 are integers, while 9.75, 5+1/2, and √2 are not.

Let x,x+2,x+4 be the least, middle and greatest integer respectively.

According to the question,

15< x+x+2+x+4< 21

(3x+6)/2> 15      and    (3x+6)/2< 21

30< 3x+6                      3x+6> 42

24<3x                            3x<36

8<x                                x>12

x=10

x+2=12

x+4=14

Hence, The even integers are 10,12 and 14.

This strategy works because if you subtract one number from another the sum of the two numbers should be the that is being subtracted from. (In this case, it's 200)

a rocket is 1 mile above thw earth in 30 seconds and 5 miles above the earth in 2.5 minutes what is the rockets rate of change i
Veronika [31]
Rate of Change:

At 1 mile in 30 seconds.
At  5 miles in 2.5 minutes.  2.5 minutes = 2.5*60 = 150 seconds.

Rate of change =   Change in height / Change in time

                            =   (h₂-h₁)/(t₂-t₁)

                            =   (5 -1) /(150 -30) = 4/120 = (1/30) = 0.0333 miles per second.

                             = (1/30) miles per second or 0.0333 miles per second.


To have the answer in miles per minute.

         (1/30) miles per second = (1/30) miles/second.

60 seconds = 1minute
1 second = (1/60) minute.

(1/30) miles/second  =  (1/30) miles/(1/60)minute
                                   =   (1/30) *60 miles / minute
                                   =    2 miles per minute.

How would the expression x^2-4 be rewritten using Difference of Squares?
Anna [14]
<span>a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b).
This is the 'Difference of Squares' formula we can use to factor the expression.

In order to use the </span><span>'Difference of Squares' formula to factor a binomial, the binomial must contain two perfect squares that are separated by a subtraction symbol.

</span><span>x^2 - 4 fits this, because x^2 and 4 are both perfect squares, and they are separated by a subtraction symbol.
All you do here to factor, is take the square root of each term.

√x^2 = x
√4 = 2

Now that we have our square roots, x and 2, we substitute these numbers into the form (a + b)(a - b).
</span>
<span>(a + b)(a - b)
(x + 2)(x - 2)

Our answer is final </span><span>(x + 2)(x - 2), which can also be written as (x - 2)(x + 2), it doesn't make a difference which order you put it in.

Anyway, Hope this helps!!
Let me know if you need help understanding anything and I'll try to explain as best I can.</span>
