Answer:

1st even integer = 2

2nd even integer = 4

3rd even integer = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive even integers be:

1st = 2(x)

2nd= 2(x +1) = 2x + 2

3rd = 2(x + 2) = 2x + 4

According to Given conditions:

7(2x) = 4 + 2x +2 + 2x + 4

By Simplifying:

14x = 10 + 4x

Subtracting 4x from both sides

14x - 4x = 10 + 4x -4x

10x = 10

Dividing both sides by 10 we get:

x = 1

Now putting value of x in supposed integers:

1st even integer = 2(1) = 2

2nd even integer = 2(1)+2 = 4

3rd even integer = 2(1) + 4 = 6

I hope it will help you!

What equation results from completing the squre and then factoring x^2+10=15

nlexa [21]

For this case we must complete squares:

$x ^ 2 + 10x = 15$

We add the square of half the coefficient of the term "x",

$(\frac {b} {2a}) ^ 2$ on both sides of the equation:

$x^2+10x+(\frac {10} {2 (1)}) ^ 2 = 25 + 15\\x ^ 2 + 10x + 5 ^ 2 = 25 + 15$

According to the perfect square trinomial we have:

$(a + b) ^ 2 = a ^2 + 2ab + b ^ 2$

Rewriting the expression we have:

$a = x\\b = 5\\(x + 5) ^ 2 = 25 + 15\\(x + 5) ^ 2 = 40$

ANswer:

$(x + 5) ^ 2 = 40$

A special liquid is held in a tank described as (x 2 + y 2 ) ≤ z ≤ 1 in a Cartesian coordinate system. Assume that the density o

vivado [14]

Since $\rho=\dfrac mV$ (density = mass/volume), we can get the mass/weight of the liquid by integrating the density $\rho(x,y,z)$ over the interior of the tank. This is done with the integral

$\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1\int_{-\sqrt{1-x^2}}^{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\int_{x^2+y^2}^1(2-z^2)\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx$

which is more readily computed in cylindrical coordinates as

$\displaystyle\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^1\int_{r^2}^1(2-z^2)r\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta=\boxed{\frac{3\pi}4}$
