The positive difference between two consecutive even perfect squares is 268. Compute the larger of the two squares. (By the way,

68 is not correct. I already checked.)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A, B are the required numbers.

A^2 - B^2 = 268

(A+ B) (A-B) = 268

Since A, B are consecutive even numbers, the difference between the two is 2. That is (A- B) = 2.

That gives A + B = 134

Solve the system, we have A = 68, B = 66

Check back

68^2 - 66^2 = 4624 - 4356=268

in order to graph a linear equation in slope-interceot form, what do you need to know? what does the equation look like when the
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(a) Slope and y-intercept; (b) y = mx; (c) y = x + b

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Need to know

Slope and y-intercept.

You use these numbers to calculate one other point. Then you draw a straight line between the y-intercept and the other point to get the graph.

2. y-Intercept = 0

The form of the equation is y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept.

If the intercept is zero, b = 0, and the equation has the form

y = mx

The graph is a straight line passing through the origin.

3. Slope = 1

m represents the slope. If m = 1, the equation has the form

y = x + b

If the axes are scaled equally, the graph is a straight line that crosses the y-intercept at an angle of 45°.

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A. The distribution should be skewed to the left because the mean is less than the median.

B. Most students scored a C or higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Since mean<median<mode, we have a negative skewness and hence the distribution is skewed to the left.

B. Since the mean score is 71 and the modal score is 81, it is expected that a 'C' should be the lowest grade most students will have.
