Hii

I m here to help u!!!


Let the two consecutive even integers are:-
x and x+2

according to the question ,we have
x^2 + (x+2)^2 =452
2x^2 + 4 + 4x =452
x^2 +2x -224=0

Now splitting the middle terms
x^2 + 16x -14x -224=0
we get
x=14
So the integers are 14 and 16.

I Hope it helps you!

Hi there! We can create a number equation to find your solution. Already, we know that two consecutive integers can be represented by x+x+1. All we have to do is square that expression and make it equal to 452. This gives us:
(x)^{2} +(x+1)^{2} =452
We can simplify that down to 2x^{2}+4x+4 =452. Now, we can subtract 452 from both sides to make the whole left side equation equal to zero. Doing that gives us 2x^{2}+4x-448=0. We see that 2 can be factored out of the whole equation, giving us 2(x^{2}+2x-224)=0. Next, we can factor the equation to get (x-16)(x+14)=0. We can use the Zero Product Property to find the x values of -16 and 14. Therefore, the two integers are -16 and 14. Hope this helped!

posledela

Answer: Jennifer didn't randomly assign participants to the control and experimental group.

Step-by-step explanation: In the scenario discussed above, Jennifer failed to perform a random assignment of the participants who took part in the survey, that is the experimental group, those who receive the treatment and the control group, those who don't. Random assignment is required in other to address the issue of bias in our experiment. She was supposed to perform a random assignment of the participants to the two groups instead of asking them to make a choice.
