Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive even numbers can be written as X,X+2,X+4,X+6, and so forth. You only have three consecutive even numbers that equal 96, so write the following equation:

X+X+2+X+4=96

1) Combine alike terms:

3X+6=96

2) Subtract 6 from both sides:

3X=90

3) Divide both sides by 3:

X=30

Now plug in 30 for each of the consecutive even numbers' equations:

X=30

X+2=32

X+4=34

The smallest of these three numbers is 30, therefore the answer is 30!

Which expression gives the y-intercept of the line when the equation is in standard form?
Serga [27]

Answer:

When an equation is in standard form, the y-intercept could be given by C/B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation, we start with the base equation of standard for and then solve for slope intercept form.

Ax + By = C

By = Ax + C

y = A/Bx + C/B

And this shows us that C/B is the y-intercept

What is the equation of thr function y=6/x translated 5 units to the left and 4 units up
sergij07 [2.7K]
If we are given function f(x) vertical translation is done by adding number to end of formula for translation to up or substracting number for translation to down.
f(x) + a OR f(x) - a
Horizontal translation is done by adding number next to x variable for translation to left or substracting number for translation to right.
f(x+a) OR f(x-a)

We need to translate function <span>5 units to the left and 4 units up. That means that we need to add 5 next to x and add 4 to end of function. The result is:
</span>f(x)= \frac{6}{x+5} +4<span>
</span>
