Answer:

102

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that the numbers are two consecutive even numbers, we can write an equation like this where n represents the 2 numbers.

n + (n+2) = 206

Simplify the left side:

n + (n+2) = 206 -----> 2n+2 = 206

Subtract 2 from both sides:

2n = 206-2 -----> 2n = 204

Now divide 204 by 2:

n = 204/2 -----> n = 102

Given f(x)=1/x+5 and g(x)=x-2

vladimir1956 [14]

For this case we have the following functions:

$f (x) = \frac {1} {x + 5}\\g (x) = x-2$

We must find f (g (x)). So:

$f (g (x)) = \frac {1} {(x-2) +5} = \frac {1} {x-2 + 5} = \frac {1} {x + 3}$

Finally we have to:

$f (g (x)) = \frac {1} {x + 3}$

For the function to be defined the denominator must be different from 0. That is x different from -3.

A grid shows the positions of a subway stop and your house. The subway stop is located at (7, -6) and your house is located at (

Yuri [45]

So the distance between subway stop and house is 19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula will be used to calculate the distance between home and subway.

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Here (x1,y1) are the coordinates of first point

and

(x2,y2) are the coordinates of second point

Given

(x1,y1) = (7, -6)

(x2,y2) = (-9,5)

Putting the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-9-7)^2+(5-(-6))^2} \\=\sqrt{(-16)^2+(5+6)^2} \\=\sqrt{256+(11)^2}\\=\sqrt{256+121}\\=\sqrt{377}\\=19.41\ units$

Rounding off to nearest unit gives us 19.

So the distance between subway stop and house is 19 units
