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.

Y= -x+2<br> x-3y =-18<br> How do i solve these so i can graph them
balu736 [363]

1. Substitute y=-x+2 into x-3y=-18:

x-3(-x+2)=-18,

x+3x-6=-18,

x+3x=-18+6,

4x=-12,

x=-3.

Then y=-(-3)+2=3+2=5.

2. The graphs of two equations you can see in attached diagram. Common point (the point of intersection) represents the solution of the system of two equations.

Answer: (-3,5) or x=-3, y=5.

Wich of the following equations would NOT contain the point (4,12)
nlexa [21]

Given:

The given point is (4,12).

To find:

The equation that would NOT contain the point (4,12).

Solution:

We need to check each equation for the point (4,12).

In option A, the given equation is:

y=-2x+20

Putting x=4, we get

y=-2(4)+20

y=-8+20

y=12

This equation contains the point (4,12).

In option B, the given equation is:

y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+8

Putting x=4, we get

y=\dfrac{1}{2}(4)+8

y=2+8

y=10

This equation does not contain the point (4,12).

In option C, the given equation is:

y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+14

Putting x=4, we get

y=-\dfrac{1}{2}(4)+14

y=-2+14

y=12

This equation contains the point (4,12).

In option D, the given equation is:

y=\dfrac{3}{4}x+9

Putting x=4, we get

y=\dfrac{3}{4}(4)+9

y=3+9

y=12

This equation contains the point (4,12).

Only the equation in option B does NOT contain the point (4,12). Therefore, the correct option is B.

Given A(-2,8) and B(4,14), what is the y-intercept of the line AB?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: C:10

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line passes through (a,b) and (c,d) :

(y-b)=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a)

Equation of line passes through A(-2,8) and B(4,14) will be :

y-8=\dfrac{14-8}{4-(-2)}(x-(-2))\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-8= \dfrac{6}{6}(x+2)

\Rightarrow\ y-8=x+2\\\\\Rightarrow\ y= x+2+8\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=x+10

For y-intercept , put x= 0 , we get y= 10

So, the y-intercept = 10

Thus , correct option = C:10
