The sum of three consecutive even numbers is one hundred sixty - two.

Answer:

 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smallest of the three numbers. Then the other two are (x+2) and (x+4). Their sum is ...

  x + (x+2) +(x+4) = 162

  3x = 156 . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 6

  x = 156/3 = 52

The smallest of the three numbers is 52.

___

I like to work problems like this by considering the average number. Here, the average of the three numbers is 162/3 = 54, the middle number of the three. Then the smallest of the three consecutive even numbers is 2 less, or 52.

Help me please I don’t understand!!!
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are things called domain and range.

Domain is all the x values and range is all the y values.

Since in your picture the parabola only seems to be touching -1, that is your domain.

A line passes through the points (1, 4) and (3, 4). Which is the equation of the line?
xeze [42]

Answer:

y = -4x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em>

<em />m=\frac{-4-4}{3-1}<em />

<em />m=\frac{-8}{2}<em />

m = -4

y = -4x + b

Step 2: Find y-intercept <em>b</em>

4 = -4(1) + b

4 = -4 + b

8 = b

Step 3: Rewrite linear equation

y = -4x + 8
