Answer:

10, 12, 14, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Four consecutive even integers such that seven times the first exceeds their sum by 18.

Lets assume the first number be "x".

As it is even integers

∴ Second consecutive number will be (x+2)

  Third consecutive number will be (x+4)

  Fourth consecutive number will be (x+6)

Now, as given seven times the first exceeds their sum by 18.

∴ [x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)]+18 = 7x

solving the equation to find the number.

⇒ [x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)]+18 = 7x

Opening parenthesis

x+x+2+x+4+x+6+18 = 7x

⇒ 4x+30= 7x

subtracting both side by 4x

⇒ 30= 3x

Dividing both side by 3

∴ x= 10.

Hence, subtituting the value x to find four consecutive even integers.

  First number is 10

  Second consecutive number will be (10+2) = 12

  Third consecutive number will be (10+4)= 14

  Fourth consecutive number will be (10+6) = 16

∴ Four consecutive even integers are 10,12,14,16.

Tasha claims that her skateboard weighs about 3 pounds. is Tasha's claim reasonable? Explain
gladu [14]
Yes, It would be reasonable since thats about the weight of a skateboard.
However, the average skateboard is closer to 6 pounds. So, the skateboard in the question is very possible- but it would be really low quality.

However- given that you are in middle school- I would say yes, it is reasonable.

1-3x=8x+3 solve the equation
LenaWriter [7]

First, subtract both sides by 8x and you would get:

1 - 11x = 3

Then, subtract both sides by 1 and you will get:

-11x = 2

Divide both sides by -11:

x = -2/11

The answer is x = 6
Explanation:
First, you must assume that 5x-10=20. Next, you add 10 to 20, which makes the equation 5x=30. Next, divide 30 by 5, which then makes the equation x=6. When you substitute 6 in the original equation, it works, because 5(6)-10 equals 20.
