Answer:

The smallest even integer is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The product of two consecutive even integers is 32 less than the square of the greater integer.

Let the smallest even integer = 2 x            ...........1

And The greatest even integer = 2 x + 2            ..........2

<u>Now, According to question</u>

smallest even integer × greatest even integer = (greatest even integer)² - 32

Or, (2 x + 2) × 2 x =  (2 x + 2)² - 32

Or, 4 x² + 4 x =  4 x² + 8 x + 4 - 32

Or,  (4 x² + 8 x) - (4 x² + 4 x) = 32 - 4

Or, (4 x²- 4 x²) + (8 x - 4 x) = 28

Or, 0 + 4 x = 28

∴ x = \dfrac{28}{4}

I.e x = 7

Now, pout the value of x in 1

So, The smallest even integer = 2 x = 2 × 7 = 14

Hence, The smallest even integer is 14  Answer

Identify the percent of change as an increase or a decrease. 50 pounds to 35 pounds. Find the percent of change.
Solnce55 [7]
Since it starts at 50 and goes to 35....it is a decrease since the amount is going down, or getting smaller.  To find the percent, first find the difference 50-35 = 15; then divide by the initial amount of 50.  So, 15/50 = 0.3, and then convert that to a percent by multiplying by 100.  Therefore the percent decrease is 30%
