n, n + 2, n + 4 - three consecutive even integers

3n = 2(n + 4) + 4 |use distributive property

3n = (2)(n) + (2)(4) + 4

3n = 2n + 8 + 4

3n = 2n + 12 |subtract 2n from both sides

n = 12

n + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14

n + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16

Answer: 12, 14, 16.

One astronomical unit is about 93,000,000 miles. At 20,000 miles per hour how many astronomical units can Orion travel? ( Orion

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

$2.15\times 10^{-4}\ AU$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

The speed of the orion= 20,000 miles per hour

Time = 1 hour ( From source )

Thus,

Distance = Speed * Time = 20,000*1 miles = 20,000 miles

Thus, in 1 hour, the orion can travel 20,000 miles

Also,

93,000,000 miles = 1 astronomical unit

1 mile = 1/93,000,000 astronomical unit

20,000 miles = (1/93,000,000)*20,000 astronomical unit

<u>The orion can travel $2.15\times 10^{-4}$ AU in one hour.</u>

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

1 and 3 are biased

Step-by-step explanation:

A biased sample is ond where all individuals were not given equal likelihood of being selected.

Number 1;

Picking students from the cafeteria would lead to sampling bias because not every student from the school eats from the cafeteria. Those she selected can not be used to account for the whole school. Those that use the cafeteria are only a representation of the whole school and not the entire school.

For number 3:

Paul is interested in finding the mean number of cloth shoppers In a mall and is only collecting data from one clothing store without considering other stores in the mall.
