Answer:

The three consecutive even integers are 4,6,8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive even integers be  2x, 2x+2, 2x + 4

Middle number = 2x +2

2x + 2x+2 + 2x + 4 = 4* (2x+2) - 6

6x + 6 = 4*2x + 4*2 - 6

6x + 6 = 8x + 8 -6

6x + 6 = 8x + 2

6x - 8x = 2 -6

-2x = -4

x = -4/-2

x = 2

The three consecutive even integers are  

2x = 2*2 = 4

2x+2 = 2*2 +2 =4 + 2 = 6

2x + 4 = 2*2+4 = 4+4 = 8

Police plan to enforce speed limits by using radar traps at four different locations within the city limits. The radar traps at
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The probability that the person gets a speeding ticket is 0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the person receives a speeding ticket is the probability that the person passes through any of the speed limits and the radar is operating at that time.

Let P(L_1) is the probability that the person passes through radar L_{1} and it is operating at that time is

P(L_{1})=P(1)\times P(2)

Where

P(1) is the probability of person passes through L_{1}

P(2) is probability that the radar is operating

P(L_1)=0.2\times 0.4=0.08

Similarly the probabilities are calculated for other radars in the similar manner as

P(L_2)=0.1\times 0.3=0.03

P(L_3)=0.5\times 0.2=0.1

P(L_4)=0.2\times 0.3=0.06

Thus the reuired probability of the reuired event is

P(E)=P(L_1)+P(L_2)+P(L_3)+P(L_4)\\\\P(E)=0.08+0.03+0.1+0.06=0.27

What is the common difference of the sequence -31, -23, -15?

The common difference is essentially what u need to add to one number in the sequence to get the next


So previous number + common difference = next number after that

The common difference would be -8

Given m varies directly with n and m = 6 when n = 5. what is the value of n when m = 12?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

n = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

given m varies directly as n then the equation relating them is

m = kn ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition m = 6 when n = 5

6 = 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )

k = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2

m = 1.2n ← equation of variation

when m = 12 , then

12 = 1.2n ( divide both sides by 1.2 )

10 = n
