Answer:
Four consecutive numbers are 2, 6, 10 and 14
Step-by-step explanation:
15(a² - 9d²) = 7(a² - d²)
15a² - 135d² = 7a² - 7d²
15a² - 7a² = 135d² - 7d²
8a² = 128d²
Putting the value of a = 8 in above we get.
8(8)² = 128d²
128d² = 512
d² = 512/128
d² = 4
d = 2
So, the four consecutive numbers are
8 - (3*2)
8 - 6 = 2
8 - 2 = 6
8 + 2 = 10
8 + (3*2)
8 + 6 = 14
10, because 10 does not need to be rounded to the nearest 10 if the number is already 10, but if the number was 17 then rounding to the nearest 10 would be 20
Answer:
it would be 59 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: QE = 10
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, it's important to understand that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
This means that E is the midpoint of diagonal SQ.
So we can setup the equation x² + 9x = 4x + 6.
To solve this polynomial equation, set it equal to zero first.
So we have x² + 5x - 6 = 0 and we get (x + 6)(x - 1) = 0
when we factor the left side of the equation.
So this means that x = -6 or x = 1.
However, -6 will give us a negative length when we plug it in
to find QE so this will not work.
However, plugging 1 in will give us 10 as a length so QE = 10.
The candle was 13 inches tall when it was first lit. It burns at a speed of 1.5 in. every hour. After burning for 6 hours it will be 4 inches tall.
