Will the sum of the three even numbers be odd or even?

Mathematics

Answer:

Even.

Step-by-step explanation:

They will be even.

All even numbers, by definition,  are divisible by 2.

We can write  3  even numbers as 2m, 2n and 2p.

So the sum = 2m + 2n + 2p

= 2(m + n + p).

This proves it because the sum is a multiple of 2 and must be even.

Cookies are on sale! Today each cookie costs $0.75 less than the normal price. Right now if you buy 7 of them it will only cost
Anestetic [448]
Let's say that the price of each normal cookie is n.
The equation would then be 7(n - .75)=2.80.
Use distributive property, getting 7n - 5.25=2.80.
Add 5.25 to each side of the equation, getting 7n=8.05. 
Divide 7 from both sides of the equation, getting n=1.15.

At the same time a 12 foot adult elephant cast a 4.8 foot shadow a baby elephant casts a 2 foot shadow how tall is the baby elep
Vsevolod [243]
Set up a proportion here as the height over the shadow of the adult = to the height over the shadow of the baby. so you have 12/4.8 = height/2. cross multiply to get 12*2=4.8 times height, which is 24 = 4.8*height. divide both sides by 4.8 to get height = 5 feet
