Answer:

42 and 44

Step-by-step explanation:

The even numbers are numbers which can be written as 2n where n is any integer number.

Therefore, two consecutive numbers would be "2n" and "2n + 2"

We then have that

2n + (2n+2) = 86

4n + 2 = 86

4n = 84

n = 21

And the even number 2n is 2(21) = 42.

(We can verify this answer by doing 42 + 44 = 86)

If i leave my house at 6:52 am and run 1 mile at an easy pace (8:15 per mile), then 3 miles at tempo (7:12 per mile) and 1 mile
FinnZ [79.3K]

Running 2 miles at 8:15 per mile takes 16:30 minutes.

Running 3 miles at 7:12 per mile takes 21:36 minutes.

The total running time is 16:30 + 21:36 = 38:06 minutes. That length of time after 6:52 am is 7:30:06 am.

You get home for breakfast at 6 seconds past 7:30 am.

6.5% tax on $65.49=0.065×65.49=$4.26 To the nearest cent, so add this to 65.49=$69.75.
