The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 236. What is smaller integers

1 answer:

6 0

I'll say the first integer is x. The next consecutive odd number would be x+2. If the sum of the odd integers is 236, the equation would be
x + (x + 2) = 236
solve for x
2x + 2 = 236
subtract 2 from each side of the equation
2x = 234
divide both sides by 2
x = 117
117 is the first odd integer. to find the other integer (x + 2), substitute 117 for x, and you have 117 + 2, which equals 119
The two consecutive odd integers that add up to 236 are 117 and 119.

yarga [219]

Answer:

d=9

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of straight line is given by

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Plug in our knows

$4=\frac{17-9}{d-5} \text{ Solve for d} \\\\4(d-5)=8\\\\d-5=4\\d=9$

It's always a good idea to check your solutions to any equation in the original equation. When solving an absolute value equatio

Andru [333]

You should must check for an extraneous solution when the variable appears both inside and outside the absolute value expression

<h3>What is an extraneous solution?</h3>

An extraneous solution is a solution that in obtained after completely solving an equation but it does not work in the original given equation.

You should must check for an extraneous solution when the variable appears both inside and outside the absolute value expression (Option D).

Si un cono lo obtienes haciendo girar un triángulo rectángulo cuya base es de 10cm y su altura es de 16cm ¿cuánto mide el radio

rodikova [14]

Answer:

10 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to better understand this question, I will attach an allusive image to the question.

Keep in mind that in this case the base of the triangle is equal to the radius of the base of the cone since the triangle rotates on its own axis, therefore the measurement of the base corresponds to 10 cm, therefore the radius measures 10 cm.
