Answer:

4,6,8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = 1st even integer

x+2 =2nd even integer

x+4 =3nd even integer

x+ x+2 + x+4 = 18

Combine like terms

3x+6 = 18

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6=18-6

3x= 12

Divide by 3

3x/3 =12/3

x = 4

x+2 = 6

x+4 = 8

For a given input value x, the function h outputs a value y to satisfy the following equation 6x+y=4x+11y. Write a formula for h

Tanzania [10]

Answer: h(x) = $\frac{1}{5}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + y = 4x + 11y

-y -y

6x = 4x + 10y

-4x -4x

2x = 10y

÷10 ÷10

$\frac{1}{5}x$ = y

Since "y" represents h(x), then h(x) = $\frac{1}{5}x$

Simplify and write answer in standard form.

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

$x^3+8x^2+2x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms (terms with the same exponent).

$x^3+(3x^2+5x^2)+(x+x)+1=x^3+8x^2+2x+1$

"Standard form" means to list terms so the exponents go from high to low (descending order).
