find two positive even consecutive integers such that a square of the smaller integer is 10 more than the larger integer

Mathematics

Answer:

the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller integer be s; then s^2 = (s + 2) + 10.

Simplifying, s^2 - s - 2 - 10 = 0, or

s^2 - s - 12 = 0.

Solve this by factoring:  (s - 4)(s + 3) = 0.

Then s = 4 and s = -3.

If the first even integer is 4, the next is 6.  We omit s = -3 because it's not even.

The smaller integer is 4.  Does this satisfy the equation s^2 = (s + 2) + 10?

4^2 = (4 + 2) + 10  True or False?

16 = 6 + 10 = 16.

True.

So the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.

Norma-Jean [14]

The opening balance of the March billing cycle for Bernice's credit card = $2374.

Amount of new purchase = $200 on the 20th of March.

She did purchase only of $200 in that March month.

We are given that she didn't do any payment.

So, still she has balance $2374 till end of the month.

Therefore, her average daily balance is $2374.00

So, the correct option is  B. $2374.00.

What is the factorization of 3x^2 – 8x + 5?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1: multiply the coefficient a and the constant c. Given that the general expression of a parabolic equation is ax^2+bx+c

3*5=15

Step 2: examine the coefficient b and try to find 2 numbers which you can multiply to get 15, add or subtract and get - 8

In this Case: - 3*-5=15 and - 3+(-5)= - 8

Step3:

You separate the equation in terms of the two factors you have found

3x^2-3x-5x+5=0

Step 4:Factorise

3x(x-1)-5(x-1)=0

(3x-5)(x-1)=0
