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

Whats the equation of the line that passes threw -4,4 and is parrell to the line y=1/2-4

vovangra [49]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation of the known line is:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-4$

A point on the unknown line is (-4, 4)

Now, since the two lines are parallel, their slopes must be equal.

Now, slope of the known line is the coefficient of 'x' which is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

Therefore, the slope of the unknown line is also $m=\frac{1}{2}$

Now, for a line with slope 'm' and a point on it $(x_1,y_1)$ is given as:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Here, $m=\frac{1}{2}, x_1=-4,y_1=4$ . Therefore,

$y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-(-4))\\\\y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x+4)\\\\y-4=\frac{1}{2}x+2\\\\y=\frac{1}{2}x+2+4\\\\y=\frac{1}{2}x+6$

Hence, the equation of the unknown line is $y=\frac{1}{2}x+6$ .
