If n is the first integer, then n+2 is the second one. The equation for the sum can be written as
  n + (n+2) = 24 . . . . . . this equation can be used to solve the problem

  2n = 22 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 2
  n = 11

The integers are 11 and 13.

_____
I like to solve problems like this by looking at the average of the integers. Here, it is 24/2 = 12. The consecutive odd integers whose average is 12 are 11 and 13.

Let the length equal x

Then the width would be 4x + 8 (8 feet more than 4 times the length)

Area = length x width:

5,472 = x * 4x+ 8

Simplify:

5472 = 4x^2 + 8x

Subtract 5472 from both sides:

4 x^2 + 8x - 5472 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve for x.

X = 36

Now you know the length is 36 feet

The width = 4(36) + 8 = 152 feet

Now find the perimeter: 152 + 152 + 36 + 36 = 376 feet.

The answer is B. 376

Simplify and solve for x. ​ ​ 5(x+20)= 7x+30
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

x = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

5 (x + 20) = 7 x + 30

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

5 x + 100 = 7 x + 30

Subtract 7 x from both sides:

(5 x - 7 x) + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30

5 x - 7 x = -2 x:

-2 x + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30

7 x - 7 x = 0:

100 - 2 x = 30

Subtract 100 from both sides:

(100 - 100) - 2 x = 30 - 100

100 - 100 = 0:

-2 x = 30 - 100

30 - 100 = -70:

-2 x = -70

Divide both sides of -2 x = -70 by -2:

(-2 x)/(-2) = (-70)/(-2)

(-2)/(-2) = 1:

x = (-70)/(-2)

The gcd of -70 and -2 is -2, so (-70)/(-2) = (-2×35)/(-2×1) = (-2)/(-2)×35 = 35:

Answer: x = 35

A surgical procedure requires choosing among four alternative methodologies. The first can result in five possible outcomes, the
Illusion [34]

Answer:

15 possible outcomes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each one of these methodologies are not related to one another and they do not need to be chosen in any order or consecutively then the possible outcomes would only need to be added all together to calculate the total possible outcomes. Since each outcome is independent. Therefore,

m1 = 5 outcomes

m2 = 2 outcomes

m3 = 4 outcomes

m4 = 4 outcomes

5 + 2 + 4 + 4 = 15

we can see that there are a total of 15 possible outcomes

Can anyone help me, i will give brainiest.
laila [671]

Answer: ∠DOB: 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we need an equation first. the sum of all angles (108°, n°, 2n°) is equal to 180°. we can depict this with the equation: 108°+2n°+n°=180°

2. now we can solve for the missing variable, n.

108°+3n°=180° → subtract both sides by → 3n°=72° → divide both sides by 3 → n=24°

3. now that we know that n=24°, we can solve the value of ∠DOB. we can see that ∠DOB is 2n° which we just plug the number we got for n into the equation. 2*24=48° meaning ∠DOB is 48°

hope this heped! ♡
