42
let the smallest even number be x, than the four even numbers are x, x+2, x+4, x+6, their sum is 180
x+x+2+x+4+x+6=180
4x+12=180
4x=168
x=42
the smallest even number is 42.
The absolute error is 4 cubic inches. To find the absolute error, you simply subtract the two values.
The percent error is 10%. To find the percent error, we create a fraction out of the error and the actual value.
4 / 40 x 100 = 10%
20% =20/100=2/10
20% of 400 =(2/10)*400 =80
1/4 of 360= (1/4)*360 =90
90>80, so 1/4 of 360 is bigger than 20% of 400
Answer:
x = -4 and x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 
and 
both equal to y, we know that the expressions equal to each other. We can write a new equation base on that.
Now we solve the equation.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Pool:</u>
Width = x ft
Length = (x+6) ft
<u>Pool along with walkway:</u>
Width = x + 5 + 5 = (x + 10) ft
Length = x + 6 + 5 + 5 = (x + 16) ft
Total area of the pool with walkway = 950 sq.ft
length * width = 950
(x+16) * (x + 10) = 950
Use FOIL method,
x*x + x *10 + 16*x + 16 *10 = 950
x² + 10x + 16x + 160 -950 = 0 {Add like terms}
x² + 26x - 790 = 0
