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

Need help with a simple problem 2^x=3^x+1

KiRa [710]

For $x\ \textgreater \ 0$ , $2^x\ \textless \ 3^x$ , all the more $2^x\ \textless \ 3^x+1$ , therefore no solution.

For $x=0$ , we have $2^0=3^0+1 \Rightarrow 1=1+1 \Rightarrow 1=2$ . Obviously that' false.

For $x\ \textless \ 0$ both $2^x$ and $3^x$ , where $2^x\ \textgreater \ 3^x$ , belong to the range $(0,1)$ , then $3^x+1$ belong to the range $(1,2)$ .
Those ranges don't have a common part, therefore, again, no solution.

So, the equation $2^x=3^x+1$ doesn't have a solution.

4.OA.2: The Turner family uses 548 liters of water per day. The Hill family uses 3 times as much water per day. How much more wa

Anika [276]

Answer:

1096 more water

Step-by-step explanation:

Let;

x = the water used in general

but used 3 times of the original = 3x

3*(548) = 1644 water a day

How much more water =New - original

where:

new = 1644

original= 548

1644 - 548

=1096 more water
