The sum of two consecutive even integers is 18. Write an equation to find the integers.

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: 8 and 10 Step-by-step explanation: Consecutive means right beside. For example, the consecutive of 4 is 5 and 3. Since it's asking for EVEN integers, you need to add 2 to the x... for example, the nearest consecutive even number to 4 is 6 (you add 2). Then, solve like normal!

The equation of the line that is parallel<br> to 4x+2 and passing through (5,15)

Mila [183]

Answer:

y=4x-5.

Step-by-step explanation:

slop-interception form of the required line is y=kx+b, where k - slop, b - intercept;

1) to find value of k:

if the required line is parallel to the given line, then slop of the given line = slop of the required line, it means k=4 and the required line is y=4x+b;

2) to find the value of 'b':

if to substitute the given coordinates into the equation of the given line, then:

15=4*5+b, b= -5.

3) finally, y=4x-5

How do I find the value of x

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The angles inside a hexagon add up to 720.

105 + 88 + 142 + 140 + 124 + x = 720

720 - (105 + 88 + 142 + 140 + 124) = x

720 - 599 = x

Lacy draws a diamond from a standard deck of 52 cards. Without replacing the first card, she then proceeds to draw a second card

Viktor [21]

Answer:

a) i) No

ii) Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade without replacement is 0.0637.

b) i) Yes

ii) Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade with replacement is 0.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Without replacement:

i) Are these events independent?

No, because the both events are dependent. because a card taken out of the deck is not replaced back before taking out the other card so the chances of event occur change.

ii) Determine the probability of drawing a diamond and then a spade without replacement.

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = (Probability of drawing a diamond) * (Probability of drawing a spade)

Probability of drawing a diamond :

Total cards in deck = 52

Diamonds = 13

Probability of drawing a diamond = 13/52

Probability of drawing a spade:

Total cards in deck after taking diamond = 52 -1 =51

Spades = 13

Probability of drawing a spade = 13/51

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = 13/52 * 13/51

= 169/2652

=0.0637

So, Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade without replacement is 0.0637

Part b) With replacements

i) Are these events independent?

Input Yes or No:

Yes, these events are independent because a card taken out of the deck is replaced back before taking out the other card so the chances of event occur doesn't change.

ii) Determine the probability of drawing a diamond and then a spade with replacement.

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = (Probability of drawing a diamond) * (Probability of drawing a spade)

Probability of drawing a diamond :

Total cards in deck = 52

Diamonds = 13

Probability of drawing a diamond = 13/52

Probability of drawing a spade:

Total cards in deck after replacing diamond = 52

Spades = 13

Probability of drawing a spade = 13/52

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = 13/52 * 13/52

= 169/2704

=0.0625

So, Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade with replacement is 0.0625
