Let the integers be x and x+1.

x = 6 + 2(x + 1)

x = 6 + 2x + 2

x = -8

Hence, the integers are -8 and -7.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we can use an equation finding the average of the siblings'ages.

\frac{14 + 12 + x}{3}  = 14 \\  \ 14 + 12 + x = 42 \\ x = 42 - 14 - 12 \\ x = 16

Find a polynomial function of degree 3 with 2, i, -i as zeros.
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

p(x)= x^3-2x^2+x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given that a polynomial has zeros as 2 , i and -i . We need to find out the cubic polynomial . In general we know that if \alpha , \ \beta \ \& \ \gamma are the zeros of the cubic polynomial , then ,

\sf \longrightarrow p(x)= (x -\alpha )(x-\beta)(x-\gamma)

Here in place of the Greek letters , substitute 2,i and -i , we get ,

\sf\longrightarrow p(x)= (x -2 )(x-i)(x+i)

Now multiply (x-i) and (x+i ) using the identity (a+b)(a-b)=a² - b² , we have ,

\sf  \longrightarrow p(x)= (x-2)\{ x^2 - (i)^2\}

Simplify using i = √-1 ,

\sf \longrightarrow p(x)= (x-2)( x^2 + 1 )

Multiply by distribution ,

\sf \longrightarrow p(x)= x(x^2+1) -2(x^2+1)

Simplify by opening the brackets ,

\sf\longrightarrow p(x)= x^3+x-2x^2-2

Rearrange ,

\sf\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{\blue{\sf p(x)= x^3-2x^2+x-2}}}

The sum of three numbers is 102. The first number is 6 more than the second. The third number is 4 times the second. What are th
const2013 [10]

Answer:

1st number: 22

2nd number: 16

3rd number: 64

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y + z = 102

x = 6 + y

z = 4y

plug that in!

(6 + y) + y + (4y) = 102

get rid of the parenthesis (I added them so you could see what I was replacing) and add like terms.

6 + 6y = 102

move 6 to the other side.

6y = 96

y = 16

now that you know one number, you can solve the equations for the rest!

x = 6 + (16)

z = 4(16)

__________________________________________________________

x = 22

y = 16

z = 64
