Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x,x+2,x+4 are the consecutive even integers

x(x+4)=96

X^2 +4x =96

x^2 +4x =96

x^2 +12x-8x -96=0

x(x+12)-8(x+12)=0

(x+12)(x-8)=0

Therefore x=8 or-12

x=8

Consecutive even integers are 8,10,12

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,−5) and is parallel to the line 2y=3x+10.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

the eqn is 3x-2y+10=0

slope m=-3/-2=3/2 (m=(-xcoeff/ycoeff)

eqn is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+5=3/2(x-2)

2y+10=3x-6

3x-2y-16=0

A 47-inch piece of steel is cut into three pieces so that the second piece is twice as
Aneli [31]

Answer:

<h2>                first piece:    5 in</h2><h2>           second piece:   10 in</h2><h2>               third piece:   32 in  </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x   - the length of the <u>first piec</u>e

2x    - twice the length of the first piece (the length of the <u>second piece</u>)

6x   - six times the  length of the first piece

two inches more:

6x+2    - the length of the <u>third piec</u>e

first + second + third = 47 in  {total length of the pieces of steel}

x + 2x + 6x + 2 = 47

9x + 2 = 47

9x = 45

x = 45:9

x = 5 in

first piece:   5 in

second piece: 2×5 = 10 in

third piece:   6×5 + 2 = 30 + 2 = 32 in
