Answer:

a. 84 < n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) < 96

b. 26 < n < 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = 1st number

n+2 2nd even number

n+4 = 3rd even number

The sum of these 3 numbers is

n+n+2+n+4

It must be between 84 and 96 (it does not include this 84 and 96)

84< n+n+2+n+4 < 96

Now we need to solve this

Combine like terms

84 < 3n +6< 96

Subtract 6 from all sides

84 -6 < 3n+6-6 < 96 -6

78 < 3n < 90

Divide all sides by 3

78/3 < 3n/3 < 90/3

26 < n< 30

If x+1/x = 5 find the value of x^3 +1/x^3. pls solve

Korolek [52]

Answer:

1) solve x+1/x = 5

$\frac{x + 1}{x} = 5$

$x + 1 = 5x$

$x - 5x = - 1$

$- 4x = - 1$

$x = \frac{ -1}{ - 4}$

$x = \frac{1}{4}$

2) solve x³+1/x³

$x {}^{3} + \frac{1}{x {}^{3} }$

substitute x = 1/4 into the expression

$( \frac{1}{4} ) {}^{3} + \frac{1}{( \frac{1}{4}) {}^{3} }$

$\frac{1}{64} + \frac{1}{ \frac{1}{64} }$

$\frac{1}{64} + \frac{64 \times 1}{1}$

$\frac{1}{64} + 64$

$\frac{4097}{64} \: or \: 64.02$
