 let x be the first integer
 x+ 2 the second integer  ( two consecutive even ) 

smaller integer  added to three times the larger  <span>x + 3 ( x+2)
  </span>two less than five times the smaller  <span>5x - 2</span>

x + 3 ( x+2)   =  5x - 2

x+3x +6 = 5x -2 

x=8       
the first  integer = 8
the second is  x+2 =10

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST.
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Choice D

Step-by-step explanation:

For this one I would find if the point lands on the line.

<em><u>Choice A:</u></em>

What we have to do is to plug in -4 for x and 4 for y.

y=2x+10\\(4)=2(-4)+10\\4=-8+10\\4\ne2

The point is not on this line so this cannot be it.

<em><u>Choice B:</u></em>

We pug what we know again.

y=\frac{1}{3}x+1\\(4)=\frac{1}{3}(-4)+1\\(4)=-\frac{4}{3}+1\\4\ne-\frac{1}{3}

The point is not on this line so it can't be it.

<em><u>Choice C:</u></em>

We pug in what we know again.

y=3x-9\\(4)=3(-4)-9\\(4)=-12-9\\4\ne-21

The point is not on this line so it can't be it.

The next one has to be it, but we'll check it just in case.

<em><u>Choice D:</u></em>

We plug in what we know again.

y= \frac{1}{2}x+6\\(4)=\frac{1}{2}(-4)+6\\(4)=-2+6\\4=4

The point is on this line so this is the line.

Someone please help with this question please​
natima [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Angle DAE = Angle BCE, lines AD amd BC are parallel (by Z-angles).

This means that Angle ADE = Angle CBE (by Z-angles).

We have 2 congruent angles and 1 congruent side (AD = BC, given).

By ASA congruence, triangles AED and CEB are congruent.
