Consecutive odd numbres are 2 apart
they numbers are x and x+2
square of first plus 3 times 2nd is 24
first is x
2nd is x+2

x²+3(x+2)=24
easy
x²+3x+6=24
minus 24 both sides
x²+3x-18=0
factor
(x+6)(x-3)=0
set to ezr
x+6=0
x=-6
false, this is even
x-3=0
x=3
x+2=5

the numbers are  3 and 5
9+15=24, yah



3 and 5 are numbers

So your equation would be (x)squared + 3(x+2) = 24
simplify:
xsq + 3x + 6 = 24
xsq + 3x - 18 = 0
if we broke this down into multiplication, one of the multiplying factors would have to equal zero since the whole now equals 0 so,
(x+6)(x-3) = 0
so, x+6 = 0, or x-3 = 0
solve:
x = -6, or 3

then  just choose the odd one

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation?<br><br><br><br> y = –6x – 1
ValentinkaMS [17]
If the equation of a line is written in the y=mx+b form, b is the y-intercept.

y=-6x-1 \\&#10;b=-1

The y-intercept is -1. The line crosses the y-axis at the point (0,-1).

Given the center and radius of a circle, write the equation of the circle.
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

(x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 25

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Coordinates (x, y)

<u>Pre-Calc</u>

Circle Center Formula: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

  • <em>(h, k)</em> is center
  • <em>r</em> is radius

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

<em>(h, k)</em> = (-2, 1)

<em>r</em> = 5

<u>Step 2: Find Equation</u>

  1. Substitute in variables [Circle Center Formula]:                                             (x - -2)² + (y - 1)² = 5²
  2. Simplify:                                                                                                             (x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 25

PLEASEEE HURRYYY
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

(2,-5) and (2,1).

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the find all the points having an x coordinate of 2 whose distance from the point (-2,-4) is 5.

A circle with center (-2,-4) and radius 5 represents all the points whose distance from the point (-2,-4) is 5.

Standard form of a circle is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where, (h,k) is center and r is the radius.

(x-(-2))^2+(y-(-4))^2=(5)^2

(x+2)^2+(y+2)^2=25

Now, put x=2.

(2+2)^2+(y+2)^2=25

(4)^2+(y+2)^2=25

(y+2)^2=25-16

(y+2)^2=9

Taking square root on both sides.

y+2=\pm\sqrt{9}

y+2=\pm3

y+2=-3\text{ or }y+2=3

y=-5\text{ or }y=1

So, the y-coordinates of the points are -5 and 1.

Therefore, the required points are (2,-5) and (2,1).
