If the sum of six consecutive even integers is 390 what is the smallest of the six integers

1 answer:

5 0

The answer is 60 but im going to explain it down below if you want to know how to do it :)

first because we dont know the values of the 6 numbers we have to lay it out like this.
x
x+2
x+4
x+6
x+8
x+10
-------- (then we add it together)
6x+30 = 390 (the sum of the 6 numbers)

using this equation we find out what x is

so we do 390-30 to find what 6x is, which is 360
because now we know that 6x=360, we divide 360 by 6 to find out what x is
360 divided by 6 =60..... x = 60

so now we know that the smallest integer is 60
to check the answer we could add the 6 numbers which are:
60+62+64+66+68+70=390 :)

so the smallest integer is 60

Find the value of x. Round the length to nearest tenth.

Lady_Fox [76]

From the law of sines, we have

$l = h\sin(\theta) = h\cos(\alpha)$

where $l$ is the leg we're interested in, $h$ is the hypothenuse, $\theta$ is the angle opposite to $l$ , and $\alpha$ is the angle between $l$ and $h$ .

So, in the first case, we can use

$x = 15\sin(35) \approx 8.6$

And in the second excercise, we use

$x = 11\cos(44) \approx 7.6$

Find the TWO integers whos product is -12 and whose sum is 1<br>

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

$\rm Numbers = 4 \ and \ -3.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The sum of two numbers is 1 .

The product of the nos . is 12 .

And we need to find out the numbers. So let us take ,

First number be x

Second number be 1-x .

According to first condition :-

$\rm\implies 1st \ number * 2nd \ number= -12\\\\\rm\implies x(1-x)=-12\\\\\rm\implies x - x^2=-12\\\\\rm\implies x^2-x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x^2-4x+3x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x(x-4)+3(x-4)=0\\\\\rm\implies (x-4)(x+3)=0\\\\\rm\implies\boxed{\red{\rm x = 4 , -3 }}$

Hence the numbers are 4 and -3

Which linear inequality is represented by the graph?

zalisa [80]

Answer:

y ≥ $\frac{1}{3}$ x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, determine the slope of the line. We can see that the slope is $\frac{1}{3}$ , because the slope has less than 1 y interval per every x interval. This means that the line is less steep. There are only 2 slope choices, $\frac{1}{3}$ , - $\frac{1}{3}\\$ , and 3. We can tell that the slope is positive, but it must be $\frac{1}{3}\\$ because it is clearly less steep than a 3 slope line.

Now, look at the portion that is shaded. It is above the line, and this means that y is greater than the equation given. We can tell it is greater than or equal to, because the line that represents the equation is shaded as well. If it was only greater than and not equal to, the line would not be shaded.

Hope this helps ! :) Please feel free to ask me any questions!
