1 answer:

5 0

Let x = small number
Let y = large number
Because they are consecutive even numbers,they must have a difference of 2:
y-x=2
y=2+x

Eqn 1: x+(2+x)=14

Eqn 2: x(2+x)=48

2x+2=14
2x=12
x=6

This means y must be 8

so your two numbers are 6 and 8

as Saturn revolves around the sun, it travels at a speed of approximately 6 miles per second. convert this speed to miles per mi

3241004551 [841]

Given:

Speed = 6 miles per second

If the Saturn revolves 6 miles in 1 second then the speed is:

$\begin{gathered} In\text{ 1 second distance is 6 miles} \\ So\text{ in 60 second distance is =6}\times60\text{ miles} \\ =360 \end{gathered}$

So speed in minutes is 360 miles per min.

In 3 minutes traveling distance is:

$\begin{gathered} =360\times3 \\ =1080 \end{gathered}$
