7. Find two consecutive even integers such that twice the smaller is

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<h3>            20 and 22</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between two consecutive even integers  is 2

and even integer is always twice some integer

So:

2x   ← smaller of numbers

2x+2  ←  larger of numbers  

2×2x     ←  twice the smaller of numbers

3(2x+2)      ←  three  times the larger

3(2x+2)-26   ← 26 less than 3 times the larger

twice the smaller is  26 less than 3 times the larger:

3(2x+2) - 26 = 2×2x

6x + 6 - 26 = 4x

       +20         +20

6x - 4x = 20

       2x = 20

2x+2 = 20 + 2 = 22        

Check:   2×20=40; 40+26 = 66; 66÷3=22

Given f"(x) = 2, f'(1)=4, and f(2)=-2,<br> find f(x).
Anna [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f"(x)=2

integrating

f'(x)=2x+c

f'(1)=2+c=4

c=4-2=2

f'(x)=2x+2

integrating

f(x)=2x^2/2+2x+a

f(x)=x^2+2x+a

f(2)=-2

(2)^2+2(2)+a=-2

4+4+a=-2

a=-2-8=-10

f(x)=x^2+2x-10

How are rate of change and slope related for a linear relationship?
ale4655 [162]
Hello! In slope-intercept form, y=mx+b. M is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The rate of change and slope are interchangeable, therefore, they both create a line through the slope-intercept form. Feel free to rate my answer Brainliest if I helped you!

The graph of the function f(x) = (x − 3)(x + 1) is shown.
Nutka1998 [239]
Option A. All the real values of x where x < -1

Procedure
Solve the inequality:
(x -3)(x+1)>0
That happens in two cases.

1) When both factors >0
x-3>0 and x+1>0
x>3 and x >-1

The intersection is x >3

2) When both factors <0
x-3<0 and x+1<0
x<3 and x<-1

the intersection is x<-1.

We have obtained that the function is positive for the intervals  x < -1 and x > 3. But in one of those intervals the function is decresing and in the other is increasing.

You can recognize that the function given is a parabola and, because the coefficient of the quadratic term is positive, the parabola opens upward. Then the function is decreasing in the  first interval and increasing in the second interval.

What is the parallel slope intercept form pls help?​
malfutka [58]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

If the line is parallel to the one given, their slopes are the same, so we need to find the y-intercept, then we can determine the slope-intercept form parallel to the given line.

-1 = 4(4) + b\\\\-1 = 16 + b\\\\-17 = b

Now that we have the y-intercept, we can create the equation.

y = 4x - 17

We can prove this by graphing both lines, like so.
