Answer:
The first set of consecutive even integers equals (8 , 6)
The second set is ( - 8 and - 6) which also works.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation
(x)^2 + (x + 2)^2 = (x)(x + 2) + 52 Remove the brackets on both sides
Solution
x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = x^2 + 2x + 52 Collect the like terms on the left
2x^2+ 4x+ 4 = x^2 + 2x + 52 Subtract right side from left
2x^2 - x^2 + 4x - 2x + 4 - 52 = 0 Collect the like terms
x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 Factor
(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0
Answer
Try the one you know works.
x - 6 = 0
x = 6
Therefore the two integers are 6 and 8
6^2 + 8^2 = 100
6*8 + 52 = 100
So 6 and 8 is one set of consecutive even numbers that works.
========================
What about the other set.
x + 8 = 0
x = - 8
x and x + 2
- 8 and -8 + 2 = - 8, - 6
(- 8 )^2 + (- 6)^2 = 100
(-8)(-6) + 52 = 100
Both sets of consecutive numbers work.
Answer:
Option B. The value of x is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
<u>The intersecting chords theorem</u> states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.

In this problem
<span>24k gold is also called pure gold or 100 per cent gold. This means that all 24 parts in the gold are all pure gold without traces of any other metals. It is known to be 99.9 per cent pure and takes on a distinct bright yellow color. There is no higher form of gold than 24K and you must be aware of this before you go to a dealer who might tell you that they’re selling you 25K or 26K gold. Since this is the purest form of gold, it is naturally more expensive than 22K or 18K gold. However, this type of gold is lesser in density as compared to gold of a lower karatage which makes it soft and pliable. Hence, it is not suited for regular forms of jewellery. Coins and bars are mostly bought of 24K gold purity. 24K gold is also used in electronics and medical devices such as those used for children suffering from ear infections who are fitted with gold tympanostomy tubes that are known to improve aeration of the middle ear.</span>
