The sum of 5 consecutive even numbers is 216. What is the third number in the sequence

Mathematics

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:  NO solution possible!


Steps:

Let "n" be the first even number. We are told that


n + (n+2) + (n+4) + (n+6) + (n +8)  = 216


The third number, the value we want, is boldfaced above.


Simplify the above equation:

5n + ( 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 ) = 216   or


5n +  20  = 216  or

5n = 196


n = 196/5   is NOT an integer value.  This problem, as stated, has no solution.

Regards, MrB

How does the graph of the function f(x)=2x^3-1 differ from the graph of its parent function?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Graph of parent function stretch vertically by factor 2 and shifts 1 units down to get the graph of f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=2x^3-1

Its parent function is  

g(x)=x^3

The translation is defined as

f(x)=kg(x+a)+b                ... (1)

Where, k is stretch factor, a is horizontal shift and b is vertical shift.

If 0<k<1, then the graph compressed vertically by factor k and if k>1, then the graph stretch vertically by factor k.

If a>0, then the graph shifts a units left and if a<0, then the graph shifts a units right.

If b>0, then the graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then the graph shifts b units down.

The given function can be written as  

f(x)=2g(x)-1         ...(2)

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

k=2,a=0,b=-1

It means graph of parent function stretch vertically by factor 2 and shifts 1 units down to get the graph of f(x).
