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!

Alex787 [66]

<u>Answer</u>

8√2


<u>Explanation</u>

Simply: 4√2 + 7√2 - 3√2

Let √2 = x

4√2 + 7√2 - 3√2 = 4x + 7x - 3x

                             = 11x - 3x

                             = 8x

Substituting x with √2

4√2 + 7√2 - 3√2 = 8√2
