<u>We are given:</u>
An even number 'n', multiplied by the next consecutive even number is 168
<u>Solving for n:</u>
From the given statement, we can say that:
n(n+2) = 168 [<em>n multiplied by the next even number 'n+2'</em>]
n² + 2n = 168
n² + 2n - 168 = 0 [<em>subtracting 168 from both sides</em>]
We can see that we now have a quadratic equation, solving using splitting the middle term
n² + 14n - 12n - 168 = 0
n(n + 14) -12(n + 14) = 0 <em>[factoring out common terms</em>]
(n-12)(n+14) = 0
Here, we can divide both sides by either (n-12) OR (n+14)
Checking the result in both the cases:
(n + 14) = 0/(n-12) (n-12) = 0/(n+14)
n + 14 = 0 n - 12 = 0
n = -14 n = 12
Both these values are even and since we are not told if the number 'n' is positive or negative, both 12 and -14 are the possible values of n
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Position of particle is 
i.e. distance from x axis is 
Distance from y axis at
velocity is given by 
Similarly acceleration is given by
Magnitude of acceleration is 
From 1 and 2 we can see that
Magnitude of acceleration is proportional to distance from x axis
Answer:
h(x) = x/3 - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Divide the hypotenuse by 2 to find the short side. Multiply this answer by the square root of 3 to find the long leg. Type 3: You know the long leg (the side across from the 60-degree angle). Divide this side by the square root of 3 to find the short side.
