Find two consecutive even integers

Mathematics

Fantom [35]3 years ago

You can set up a system of equations with x being the smaller number and y being the larger number. So the first equation would be 2y=5x-14 and the second equation would be x=y-2. You can solve by substitution and substitute y-2 into the x in the first equation to get 2y=5(y-2)-14. You can solve this out and it ends up simplifying to y=8. So you know the larger number is 8. So since the larger number is 8 and they are consecutive even integers, the smaller number must be 6. So the two numbers would be 6 and 8.

A church luncheon made $842. Adult tickets cost $10 each and children's tickets cost $6 each. The number of children was 12 more
Orlov [11]

Solution: Let x be the number of adult ticket's.

The number of child ticket =2x+12

We are given, that an adult ticket cost's $10 and child ticket costs $6. Also the church luncheon made $842.

Therefore,

x \times 10 + (2x+12)6=842

10x+12x+72=842

22x=842-72

22x=770

x=\frac{770}{22}=35

Therefore, the number of adult ticket's sold = 35

And the number of child ticket's sold = 2 x 35 + 12 = 70 + 12 = 82

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Options (1) and (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In 3-dimensional geometry,

Skew lines are lines which do not intersect and are not parallel.

From the given triangular prism,

Option (1). RS and TU

Sides RS and TU are neither parallel nor intersect each other.

Therefore, these lines are skew lines.

Option (2).QR and SV

Since QR and SV neither intersect nor parallel,

These lines are the skew lines.

Option (3) RS and RU

Since RS and RU intersect at R therefore, they are not the skew lines.

Option (4).RS and UV

Since RS and UV are the parallel lines therefore, they are not the skew lines  .

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

A: 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length is 5 inches longer than the width, we must multiply the width by 4 and add ten to figure out the perimeter. 7.5 x 4 = 30. 30 + 10 = 40.
