3 consecutive even integers : x, x + 2, x + 4

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = -84.....combine like terms
3x + 6 = - 84.......subtract 6 from each side
3x = -84 - 6
3x = - 90...divide both sides by 3
x = -90/3
x = -30

x + 2 = -30 + 2 = -28
x + 4 = -30 + 4 = -26

so ur 3 numbers are : -26, -28, -30

Since they are consecutive even integers, they would differ by 2.

Let the first even integer be x.

x , x + 2,  x + 4

Sum = -84

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = -84

x + x + x + 2 + 4 = -84

3x + 6 = -84

3x = -84 - 6

3x = -90

x = -90/3

x = -30

Hence the even integers are:  x,  x + 2 , x + 4

-30,  -30 + 2,  -30 + 2 + 2

-30,  -28, -26

Hence the consecutive even integers are: -30,  -28, -26

Two architects bid for a small government project, both
blondinia [14]

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the total number of hours

Amazing design total charge = 45x+250

super structures total charge = 60x+100

both companies charge the same amount when both equation equals

45x+250=60x+100

60x-45x=250-100

15x=150

x=10

therefore at 10 hours both companies will charge the same amount

<h3>How to infer the graphical form of a general equation</h3>

In this problem we have <em>general</em> equations of the form A · x² + B · y² + C · x + D · y + E = 0, which have to be modified into <em>standard</em> form to infer its <em>graphical</em> form. This procedure can be done by <em>algebra</em> properties:

16 · x² + 4 · y² + 96 · x - 8 · y + 84 = 0

[(4 · x)² + 2 · 12 · (4 · x)] + [(2 · y)² - 2 · 2 · (2 · y)] = - 84

[(4 · x)² + 2 · 12 · (4 · x) + 144] + [(2 · y)² - 2 · 2 · (2 · y) + 4] = 64

(4 · x + 12)² + (2 · y + 2)² = 64

4² · (x + 3)² + 2² · (y + 2)² = 64

(x + 3)² / 4 + (y + 2)² / 16 = 1 : Ellipse

x² + y² + 8 · x - 6 · y - 15 = 0

(x² + 8 · x) + (y² - 6 · y) = 15

(x² + 2 · 4 · x + 16) + (y² - 2 · 3 · y + 9) = 40

(x + 4)² + (y - 3)² = 40 : Circle

x² + 6 · x + 4 · y + 5 = 0

x² + 6 · x + 5 = - 4 · y

y = - (1 / 4) · x² - (3 / 2) · x - (5 / 4) : Parabola
