N; n + 2 - the two consecutive even integers

n + 3(n + 2) = 46
n + 3n + 6 = 46   <em> |subtract 6 from both sides</em>
4n = 40      <em>  |divide both sides by 4</em>
n = 10

n + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12

<u>Answer: 10 and 12.</u>

Allison bought some shirts for he clothing store for $15 each. She received $50 off her entire purchase and spent a total of $40
k0ka [10]

The $50 off was like a coupon after you brought all your merchandise to the counter, so we have to add it back in to determine the number of shirts.

$400+$50=$450 original price of shirts

Original price ÷ price per shirt= quantity purchased

$450 ÷ $15/shirt= 30 shirts purchased

Allison bought 30 shirts.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

The right side is a right triangle

The base is 1/2 of the bottom or 5

The height is x and the hypotenuse is 13

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

5^2 +x^2=13^2

25+x^2 = 169

Subtract 25 from each side

25-25+x^2 = 169-26

x^2 =144

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(144)

x= 12

Solve -2/3x &gt; 8 or -2/3x &lt; 4.

<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

{x | x < -12 or x > -6}

=========================================================

Explanation:

Let's solve the first inequality for x.

(-2/3)x > 8

-2x > 8*3

-2x > 24

x < 24/(-2)

x < -12

The inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative value.

Let's do the same for the second inequality.

(-2/3)x < 4

-2x < 4*3

-2x < 12

x > 12/(-2)

x > -6

The conclusion of each section is that x < -12 or x > -6 which points us to <u>choice C</u> as the final answer.

Side note: The intervals x < -12 and x > -6 do not overlap in any way. There's a gap between the two pieces. We consider these intervals to be disjoint. The number line graph is below.

Triangle X Y Z is shown. The length of side X Y is (9 n + 12) feet and the length of side X Z is (15 n minus 6) feet. Angles X Y
posledela

*the figure is shown in the attachment

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Since <XYZ and <YZX are said to be congruent, therefore, the side opposite to each of the angle are also equal. Therefore, ∆XYZ is an isosceles ∆.

Find the value of n by creating an equation to solve for n:

XY = (9n + 12) ft

XZ = (15n - 6) ft

XY = XZ (2 equal lengths of isosceles ∆)

9n + 12 = 15n - 6 (substitution)

Combine like terms

9n - 15n = - 12 - 6

-6n = -18

Divide both sides by -6

-6n/-6 = -18/-6

n = 3

Find the length of leg XY by substituting n = 3 into XY = (9n + 12) ft.

XY = (9(3) + 12) ft

XY = (27 + 12) ft

XY = 39 ft

Find the length of leg XZ by substituting n = 3 into XZ = (15n - 6) ft.

XZ = (15(3) - 6) ft

XZ = (45 - 6) ft

XZ = 39 ft
