REASONING An even integer can be represented by the expression $2n$ , where $n$ is any integer. Find three consecutive even inte

gers that have a sum of 54. The three consecutive even integers, in order from least to greatest, are , , and . Explain your reasoning. Expressions for the next two consecutive even integers after $2n$ are and . Solving the equation $=54$ , and substituting the solution into the expressions for the three integers results in the three integers given above.

Answer:

First Integer = 16

Second Integer = 18

Third integer = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

An even integer is represented by 2n

Where n is any integer

Let :

First Integer = 2n - 2

Second Integer = 2n

Third integer = 2n + 2

The sum of three even consecutive numbers = 2n - 2 + 2n + 2n + 2

= 2n + 2n + 2n - 2 + 2 = 54

= 6n = 54

n = 54/6

n = 9

First Integer = 2n - 2 = 2(9) - 2

= 16

Second Integer = 2n = 2(9)

= 18

Third integer = 2n + 2 = 2(9) + 2

= 20

Rashid [163]

A random variable x is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a variance of 25. Given that x = 110, its corresponding z- score is 0.40.

Answer: The given z-score is false.

Explanation: We are given:

Mean, \mu=100,

Variance, \sigma^{2}=25

\therefore\sigma=\sqrt{\sigma^{2}}

                 =\sqrt{25}

                 =5

The z-score formula is given below:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

        =\frac{110-100}{5}

        =\frac{10}{5}

        =2

Therefore, the z-score corresponding x=100 is 2

Therefore, the given z-score = 0.4 is false.

Which is equation in point slope form for the given point and slope. Point5,9 slope2
Sedbober [7]

Answer: y - 9 = 2(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

substitute 5 for x1 and 9 for y1 and 2 for m

x1 = 5

y1 = 9

m = 2

you get y - 9 = 2(x - 5)
