X = 2y
2x + 2y = 24
So if x = 2y that means 2x = 4y. Which means that 2x + 2y = 24 can be written as 4y + 2y = 24. Simplified to 6y = 24. Now we need to get 1y so we divide both sides by 6, 6y/6 = y and 24/6 = 4. so y = 4. so x= 2y can be written as x = 8.

Answer:

c=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

I used a calculator and paper and a pencil d---------b yeah :D yr welcome

Ok, so you would want to simplify both sides of the equation

(-1/3)(-12) + (1/3)(-12c)=-20 (here you distribute)

4+4c=-20

Then, subtract 4 from both sides

4c+4-4=-20-4

4c=-24

Then divide both sides by 4

4c/4=-24/4

c=-6

If the sum of the even integers between 1 and k, inclusive, is equal to 2k, what is the value of k?
lorasvet [3.4K]
You can make a start by putting together an expression for the sum of the even integers between 1 and k inclusive.

Let S be the sum of the even integers between 1 and k inclusive.

Then:
<span><span>S=2+4+6+⋯+(k−2)+k</span></span>

As k is even, you can say r = 2k and so:

<span><span>S=2(1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r)</span></span>

<span>Now the sum of the first </span><span>r</span><span> numbers is well-known, it's the </span><span>r</span>th triangle number and we have:

<span><span>1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r=<span><span>r(r+1)/</span>2</span></span></span>
<span>Now we can keep it simple and say </span><span><span>2k=4r </span></span><span>and so:</span>

<span><span>S=2(1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r)=4r=2<span><span>r(r+1)</span>2</span>=r(r+1)</span></span>

<span>So you can build a quadratic in </span><span>r</span><span> and so get </span><span>k.</span>
