Answer:
61 , 63 , 65 , 67
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the least even number be denoted by x. The sum of the four consecutive even numbers would be:
(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) (x + 6) = 256
First, simplify. Combine all like terms:
x + x + x + x + 2 + 4 + 6 = 256
4x + 12 = 256
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:
4x + 12 (-12) = 256 (-12)
4x = 256 - 12
4x = 144
Next, divide 4 from both sides of the equation:
(4x)/4 = (144)/4
x = 144/4
x = 61
61 is your first number. Find the next 3 consecutive numbers:
x = 61
x + 2 = 63
x + 4 = 65
x + 6 = 67
Check:
61 + 63 + 65 + 67 = 256
256 = 256

Answer:
60°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.
∠R + 88° + 32° = 180°
∠R = 60° . . . . . . subtract 120° from both sides of the equation
Answer:
Sarah spent 45.76
Jack spent 38.16
Jack spent more on tax
Step-by-step explanation:
Sarahs game costs:
tax = 44 *.04 = 1.76
Total cost = game + tax
= 44 + 1.76
=45.76
Jacks game costs:
tax = 36 *.06 = 2.16
Total cost = game + tax
= 36 + 2.16
=38.16
Jack spent more on tax
