X + y = 76
x - y = 20
------------add
2x = 96
x = 96/2
x = 48

x + y = 76
48 + y = 76
y = 76 - 48
y = 28

ur numbers are : 48 and 28

Find four consecutive even integers such that seven times the first exceeds their sum by 18.
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

10, 12, 14, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Four consecutive even integers such that seven times the first exceeds their sum by 18.

Lets assume the first number be "x".

As it is even integers

∴ Second consecutive number will be (x+2)

  Third consecutive number will be (x+4)

  Fourth consecutive number will be (x+6)

Now, as given seven times the first exceeds their sum by 18.

∴ [x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)]+18 = 7x

solving the equation to find the number.

⇒ [x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)]+18 = 7x

Opening parenthesis

x+x+2+x+4+x+6+18 = 7x

⇒ 4x+30= 7x

subtracting both side by 4x

⇒ 30= 3x

Dividing both side by 3

∴ x= 10.

Hence, subtituting the value x to find four consecutive even integers.

  First number is 10

  Second consecutive number will be (10+2) = 12

  Third consecutive number will be (10+4)= 14

  Fourth consecutive number will be (10+6) = 16

∴ Four consecutive even integers are 10,12,14,16.
