X + x +2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 + x+ 10 = 270
6x + 30= 270
6x = 240
x = 40

all numbers are 40,42,44,46,48,50
second number = 40 + 42 = 42

Hello! 

Let's take a look at this problem... okay so it tells us we have six consecutive even numbers...  *** this means that there are six even numbers that come after each other in order ***   ( for example:   2, 4, 6, 8...)   

since we don't know these numbers let's start off by giving them variable values....

x = 1st number
x + 2 = 2nd number     ---->  I added 2 to x cuz the next even number comes     x + 4 = 3rd number               two spots after
x + 6 = 4th number
x + 8 = 5th number
x + 10 = 6th number

now let's form an equation with all this....

(x) + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) + (x+8) + (x+10) = 270
6x + 30 = 270
6x = 240
<u>x = 40</u>

Now we plug x into the 2nd number's "equation"....

x + 2 
40 + 2
<u>42</u><u />                   <-----    That's your answer!

Hope this helps! :D

Jenna sold 63 bracelets at one craft show and 36 and another which expression correctly applies the distributive property to sho
aev [14]

Answer:

C . 63 + 36 = 9(7 + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Jenna sold 63 bracelets at one craft fair and 36 bracelets at a second craft fair. Which expression correctly applies the distributive property to show equivalent expressions for the total number of bracelets she sold?

63 + 36 = (3)(21) + (9)(4)

63 + 36 = (7)(9) + (12)(3)

63 + 36 = 9(7 + 4)

63 + 36 = 3(21 + 9)

To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something.

According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.

To determine the distributive property to show equivalent expression, find the common factors of 63 and 36

63 = 3, 7, 9, 21,

36 = 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18,

Common factors of 63 and 36 are 3 and 9

Using 3

3(21 + 12)

Using 9

9(7 + 4)

3(21 + 12) is not one of the options, therefore, 9(7 + 4) is the answer

Option C gives the distributive property

63 + 36 = 9(7 + 4)

63 + 36 = 63 + 36

G(x) = -8x + 2, find<br><br> a. g(x+4)<br><br> b. g(x) + g(-2)
kondaur [170]

Answer:

g(x+4)= -8(x+4)+2

=-8x-32+2=-8x-30

g(x)+g(-2)=-8x+2+(-8(-2)+2)

=-8x+2+(16+2)

=-8x+20

a.=-8x-30

b.=-8x+20

ASAP PLSSS HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
kodGreya [7K]
Take the f function minus the g function and subtract like terms
4 - (-2) is 6, so that part is 6*8 to the x power,
then you have the 18x with nothing subtracted from it,
and then -7 - -12....or at least that looks like -12...hard to see with it being covered up...anyway that part would be 5.

so 6*8^x + 18x + 5 is the answer
