Find the second of two consecutive even numbers whose sum is 798

Dominik [7]3 years ago

To set up consecutive even integers you use x for the first integer and x + 2 for the second integer. You add 2 since you are going to the next EVEN instead of just the next integer. Now we set up an equation = 798 and solve.
x + x + 2 = 798
2x + 2 = 798
subtract -2 from both sides
2x = 796
divide by 2 on both sides
x = 398
x + 2 = 398 + 2 = 400
CHECK 398 + 400 = 798

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 15cm long. One of the triangle’s legs is two times the length of the other leg. Find the l
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

6.7cm, 13.4cm, 15cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be one side of the triangle. The question tells us the other side is 2x.

We can relate all 3 sides using the Pythagorean Theorem:

15^2=x^2+(2x)^2\\225=x^2+4x^2\\225=5x^2\\x^2=45\\x=6.7

That means the side lengths are 6.7cm and 2 x 6.7 cm = 13.4cm.
