answer : 4407,4408

because 8815/2 = 4407.5 so you take away the .5 to find one number and you add .5 for the other

Answer:

4407 and 4408

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Call one of the numbers x, and the other x + 1 (because a consecutive number is one that follows another).

2. Equal the sum of those two numbers to 8815, solve for x.

x + x + 1 = 8815

Combine like terms.

2x + 1 = 8815

Subtract 1 from both sides.

2x = 8814

Divide both sides by 2

x = 4407

3. If x = 4407, then x + 1 = 4408.

Complete the equation, by supplying the missing exponent. m•n2•m3= m 11n2

MaRussiya [10]

Given:

Consider the given equation is:

$m^?\cdot n^2\cdot m^3=m^{11}\cdot n^2$

To find:

The missing exponent.

Solution:

Let x be the missing exponent. Then the given equation can be written as

$m^x\cdot n^2\cdot m^3=m^{11}\cdot n^2$

It can be rewritten as:

$(m^x\cdot m^3)\cdot n^2=m^{11}\cdot n^2$

$m^{x+3}\cdot n^2=m^{11}\cdot n^2$ $[\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]$

On comparing the coefficient of m, we get

$x+3=11$

$x=11-3$

$x=8$

Therefore, the value of the missing exponent is 8. So, the complete equation is $m^8\cdot n^2\cdot m^3=m^{11}\cdot n^2$ .

Answer:

Parallel
Neither parallel nor perpendicular
Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line m:

y = 4/5x - 3

Relationship of line m with following lines:

1. y = 4/5x + 3

Same slope, different y-intercept
Parallel

2. y = -4/5x + 3

Slope are negative, different y-intercept
Neither parallel nor perpendicular

3. y = - 5/4x + 3

Slopes are negative-reciprocal, different y-intercept
Perpendicular
