Jared wanted to find three consecutive even integers whose sum was 4 times the first of those integers. He let k represent the f

irst integer, then wrote and solved this equation: k + (k + 1) + (k + 2) = 4k. Did he get the correct answer? Complete the explanation.

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

He did not get the correct answer because he wanted to find 3 consecutive EVEN integers. If they were all even, this would mean they had to be 2 away from each other. So, the equation should have been k + (k + 2) + (k + 4) = 4k.

aniked [119]

ANSWER

W''(2, - 3)

EXPLANATION

The given point bas coordinates

W(-2,3).

The mapping for reflection over the x-axis is

(x,y)\to(x, - y)

W(-2,3)\to \: W'(-2, - 3)

This point W'(-2,-3) is then reflected over the y-axis.

The mapping for reflection over the y-axis is

(x,y)\to (-x, y)

W'(-2,-3)\to \: W''(2, - 3)

HELLPPPPP IDK WHAT TO DOOO
vesna_86 [32]

The formula can be written in the form ...

... T = (original temperature) + x·(change in temperature each minute)

The problem statement gives you the original temperature (21 °C) and tells you the temperature after 12 minutes. You have to use that information to figure out the change in temperature each minute.

The change in temperature in 12 minutes is (75 °C) - (21 °C) = 54 °C. That is the change in 12 minutes, so the change in 1 minute will be 1/12 of that:

... 54/12 = 4.5

Using this value in the equation for T, we have

... T = 21 + 4.5x

Make a flow chart showing that the triangles below are similar. NO LINKS OR CRAZY LANGUAGES.!!!!!!​
pantera1 [17]

Answer: See the attached image

You have the correct idea for the boxes you've filled out. For the first three boxes in column 1, I would be specific which segments you are dividing. So for instance, in the first box, it would be EG/EB = 55/11 = 5. Then the second box would be EF/EC = 35/7 = 5, and so on. The order of the boxes doesn't matter. The three boxes then combine together to help show that the triangles are similar. Specifically \triangle EFG \sim \triangle ECB. The order of the letters is important to help show how the angles pair up and how the sides pair up. We use the SSS similarity theorem here.

The second problem is the same idea, but we use one pair of congruent angles. So we'll use the SAS similarity theorem this time.
