Answer:
the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller integer be s; then s^2 = (s + 2) + 10.
Simplifying, s^2 - s - 2 - 10 = 0, or
s^2 - s - 12 = 0.
Solve this by factoring: (s - 4)(s + 3) = 0.
Then s = 4 and s = -3.
If the first even integer is 4, the next is 6. We omit s = -3 because it's not even.
The smaller integer is 4. Does this satisfy the equation s^2 = (s + 2) + 10?
4^2 = (4 + 2) + 10 True or False?
16 = 6 + 10 = 16.
True.
So the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.
SAS i believe :) sorry if im wrong!
Because you have two variables and only one equation, you can only solve for approximate answers, and not complete, absolute answers.
<h3><u>You can simplify this equation to x = -4y + 12</u></h3>
y - 3 = -1/4(x + 3)
Distributive property.
y - 3 = -1/4x - 3/4
Multiply all terms by 4.
4y - 12 = -x
Multiply all terms by -1
-4y + 12 = x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear equation is written as 
, "m" being the slope and "b" being the y-intercept.
The slope is how many times you rise/run in order to get from one point on the line to the next. You rise (go up/down) 1 unit and run (go left/right) 3 units. Plug in the numbers and you get 1/3.
The y-intercept is where the graph lands on the y-axis, which is 4.
4 x p - 9 = 3 x p + 6
Hope it helped
