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.

Rounding decimals 324,650
Cloud [144]
It depends how many decimal points you are moving. If it's 1 decimal point then the point would move to the right and the answer would be 3246.50if it was two decimal places then it moves two to the right and the answer would 32465.0. But you don't need to put the .0 at the end so it will be 32465

Answer:

x = √30

Step-by-step explanation:

From small triangle BDC:

using Pythagorean theorem

CB² = BD² + DC²

x² = BD² + 3²

Fron triangles BDC and ADB.

ΔBDC has long leg BD and short leg DC.

ΔADB has long leg AD and shirt leg BD.

AD : BD = BD : DC

7 : BD = BD : 3

7*3 = BD*BD

BD² = 7*3 = 21

x² =  BD² + 3² = 21+9 = 30

x² = 30

x = √30

Points Y and Z are the same distance from point X on a number line. The coordinate of point X is –7 and the coordinate of point
Mars2501 [29]
Since you know that point Y and point Z are equal distance form point F, you will need to know the distance between point Y, -1, and the distance between point X, -7. So, the total distance, after subtracting -1 from -7, is -6.  So, you will then subtract another -6 from -7, to get -13, which is the coordinate of point Z.
