Find two consecutive odd integers such that 53 more than the lesser is four times the greater

1 answer:

4 0

Let x and x+2 the 2 odd consecutive numbers. Now translate from English language to Math's:
x+53 = 4(x + 2), Expand :
x+53 = 4x + 8
53 - 8 = 4x - x

45 = 3x and x = 15. So the 1st is 15 and the 2nd is 17

Hey, I need help with questions 1 and 2, if anyone can help, please? thanks!

The correct works are:

$Blue(s + h) = 2s^2 + 4sh + 2h^2 + 3$ .
$\frac{Blue(s + h) - Blue(s)}{h} = 4s + 2h$

<h3>Function Notation</h3>

The function is given as:

$Blue(s) = 2s^2 + 3$

The interpretation when Steven is asked to calculate Blue(s + h) is that:

Steven is asked to find the output of the function Blue, when the input is s + h

So, we have:

$Blue(s + h) = 2(s + h)^2 + 3$

Evaluate the exponent

$Blue(s + h) = 2(s^2 + 2sh + h^2) + 3$

Expand the bracket

$Blue(s + h) = 2s^2 + 4sh + 2h^2 + 3$

So, the correct work is:

$Blue(s + h) = 2s^2 + 4sh + 2h^2 + 3$

<h3>Simplifying Difference Quotient</h3>

In (a), we have:

$Blue(s + h) = 2s^2 + 4sh + 2h^2 + 3$

$Blue(s) = 2s^2 + 3$

The difference quotient is represented as:

$\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h}$

So, we have:

$\frac{Blue(s + h) - Blue(s)}{h} = \frac{2s^2 + 4sh + 2h^2 + 3 - 2s^2 - 3}{h}$

Evaluate the like terms

$\frac{Blue(s + h) - Blue(s)}{h} = \frac{4sh + 2h^2}{h}$

Evaluate the quotient

$\frac{Blue(s + h) - Blue(s)}{h} = 4s + 2h$

Hence, the correct work is:

$\frac{Blue(s + h) - Blue(s)}{h} = 4s + 2h$

Find each measurement. Assume that each figure is not drawn to scale.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

1) 2 1/4 inches (2.25)

2) 5.3 millimeters

3) X=10 and YZ=60

Step-by-step explanation:

Number 1, you just add the measurements because n and q is the start and end of the line segment.

Number 2, you are given the whole measurement, and you know FG which is 9.7, so you subtract the 15 (whole measurement) by 9.7, which is 5.3.

Number 3, you know that XY and YZ equal XZ, so 8x+1 would equal 81. Do the math, you would get 8x=80 and then x=8. Now you know x, plug it in for 6x, so 6(10)=60.
