Three times the largest of three consecutive even integers is equal to the sum of the other two

Mathematics

slavikrds [6]3 years ago

Answer:

The three consecutive even integers are

x=-10\\x+2=-8\\x+4=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  

x ----> the smallest of three consecutive even integers

x+2 ----> the second consecutive even integers

x+4 ----> the largest of three consecutive even integers

we know that

Three times the largest of three consecutive even integers is equal to the sum of the other two

so

3(x+4)=x+(x+2)

solve for x

3x+12=2x+2\\3x-2x=2-12\\x=-10

Find (x+2)

(x+2)=-10+2=-8

Find (x+4)

(x+4)=-10+4=-6

therefore

The three consecutive even integers are

x=-10\\x+2=-8\\x+4=-6

A total of 41 people attended Rayleigh's birthday party. Rayleigh's sister invited some of the guests. If Raleigh invited 19 mor
Keith_Richards [23]

Her sister invited 22 guests. What you have to do to solve this problem is subtract 41-19. We have to do this because Rayliegh invited 19 more people than her sister, but invited a total of 41 people herself. So, to figure out how many people her sister invited we have to know that Rayliegh invited 19 more people and we have to subtract that from the total number she invited to get how many people her sister invited: 22 guests. Can you make me brainliest?

1) Which linear equation BEST represents the line of best fit for the scatterplot? A) y = x B) y = 3x C) y = -3x D) y = 5x + 1 2
Tresset [83]

Answer:

1) A. y = x + 2

Once a line of best fit has been placed upon a scatter graph it is straightforward to find the equation. The general equation of a straight line is: y = mx + c Where m is the slope (gradient) of the line and c is the y-intercept.

4) d. strong positive correlation.

The slope of the line is positive. Most points lie close to the line.  

(I am not sure if this is correct or not, I am so sorry)

Use the distance formula d = rt to find the unknown value d = 405 mi t = 7.5 h
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

r = 54 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have been given the values for two of the unknowns, we can substitute them into the equation to find the third.

d = 405

t = 7.5

d = rt

405 = r (7.5)

405=7.5r

Now to find r, we need to get it by itself on one side so we have r = ...

We can do this by dividing 7.5 from both sides of the equation as this will cancel out the 7.5, leaving us with the r value, and everything you do to one side of an equation must also be done to the other side.

405/7.5=7.5r/7.5

54=r

The unknown value 'r' = 54

Since 'r' stands for 'rate', the units given must be appropriate for speed. As the distance was given in miles, and the time in hours, the unit for 'r' must be miles/hour. Therefore r=54miles/hour.

Hope this helped!
