Find three consecutive even intergers whose sum is 72

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleonysh [2.5K]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The three numbers are: 22, 24, 26

Consecutive even numbers don't have every number, just the even ones.  So, for example, 40, 42, 44 are three consecutive even numbers.

The sum comes from addition.

Let any of the numbers be x (but, remember that the equations change based on which number you pick):

   Sum = (x) + (x+2) + (x+4) = 72

    3x + 6 = 72              (collect like terms)

    3x =  66                 (subtract 6 from both sides)

    x = 22         (I let x=first number)

Me ajudem com a 3º questão
Alisiya [41]

I can't read that language but I'll guess it says write a second degree equation then solve for n when d=10.

10 = \dfrac{n(n-3)}{2}

20 = n^2 - 3n

n^2 - 3n - 20 = 0

Answer: n² - 3n - 20 = 0

That doesn't factor so there is no integer n solution.

That means there are no polygons with 10 diagonals.

n = \frac 1 2(3 \pm \sqrt{89})

Answer:

Not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

We can figure out if it is a right triangle or not by using the pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

In this case a and b are 16 and 18

In order for it to be a right triangle, c has to equal 34, in this problem.

16^2 + 18^2 = c^2

= 580^2

= \sqrt{580} = 24.0832

Since 24.0832 does not equal 34, this is not a right triangle

Solve formula for B v= 1/3Bh
MaRussiya [10]

v = 1/3Bh

Divide both sides by h.

v/h = 1/3B

Multiply both sides by 3.

3v/h = B

\boxed {B = \frac{3v}{h} }
