Find two consecutive even integers such that eight times the first equals seven times the second equals

Mathematics
1 answer:
ololo11 [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Hence two consecutive even integers are 14 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and x+2 be the two consecutive even integers

Then according to the given statement in the question

8x = 7(x+2)

<u>Distributive property </u>

8x=7x+14

<u>Subtraction Property of Equality</u>

8x-7x = 14+7x-7x

<u>Simplifying</u>

x = 14

So the first integer is 14 and second is:

x+2 = 14+2 = 16

Hence two consecutive even integers are 14 and 16 ..

<h3>1. Inscribe a circle ΔJKL. Identify the point of concurrency that is the center of the circle you drew. </h3>

To inscribe a circle in the attached triangle, we must follow the following steps. The resultant figure is the first one below.

1. Draw the angle bisector of angle JKL. The straight line in the green one.

2. Draw the angle bisector of angle KLJ. The straight line in the blue one.

3. Draw point D at these two lines.

4. Draw a line through point D perpendicular to side JK. The straight line in the red one.

5. Mark point G at the red line and side JK.

6. Draw a circle with center at D (point of concurrency) and a radius of DG.


<h3>2. Circumscribe a circle ΔFGH. Identify the point of concurrency that is the center of the circle you drew. </h3>

To circumscribe a circle in the attached triangle, we must follow the following steps:

1. Draw the perpendicular bisector of the side FG. The straight line in the red one. The resultant figure is the second one below.

2. Draw the perpendicular bisector of the side GH. The straight line in the blue one.

3. The center of the circle is the intersection of these two lines

4. Draw a circle with center at D (point of concurrency).

<h3>3. Construct the two lines tangents to circle</h3>

A tangent to a circle is a straight line that touches the circle at an only point. If a point A is outside a circle, we can draw two lines that pass through this point and are tangent to the circle at two different points each. So this is shown in the third figure. Lines red and blue are tangent to the circle at two different points.

Solve the equation-8+6m= 1/2(4m+16) for m
Lena [83]

Answer:

m = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 8 + 6m = \frac{1}{2}(4m + 16) ← distribute parenthesis

- 8 + 6m = 2m + 8 ( subtract 2m from both sides )

- 8 + 4m = 8 ( add 8 to both sides )

4m = 16 ( divide both sides by 4 )

m = 4

Can someone help me lol, I need to learn this ASAP step by step
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A. distribute the X to the X in the parenthesis and you get 2x. Then distribute the X to the -7 in the parenthesis and you get -7x. Combine like terms so that would be 2x-7x and you get -5x.

C. distribute the 6x to the X in the parenthesis and you get 7x. Then distribute the 6x to the 2 in parenthesis and you get 8x. Combine like terms so that would be 7x+8x and you get 15x.

E. Not sure on this one, sorry.

So this is what i did but im not sure if its 100% correct

585 / 9 to get the number of groups = 65

then you take 65 x 3 for number of students in each group and you get the final answer of 195 students
