Answer:

70 times

Step-by-step explanation:

5 consecutive even integers: 2n, 2n+2, 2n+4, 2n+6, 2n+8 for any integer n The sum of the two smallest of five consecutive even integers is 50 less than the sum of the other three integers: 2n + 2n+2 = 2n+4 + 2n+6 + 2n+8 - 504n + 2 = 6n -3234 = 2nn = 17 The smallest integer in our sequence is 2n = 2*17 = 34 Check:2n + 2n+2 = 2n+4 + 2n+6 + 2n+8 - 5034 + 36 = 38 + 40 + 42 - 5070 = 120 - 5070 = 70

X intercept f(x)=(x+4)^2
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

<h2>-4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function f(x)=(x+4)², <u>the x intercept occurs at f(x)  = 0,</u> substituting f(x) = 0 into the given equation to get the value of x we have;

0 = (x+4)^{2} \\

Taking the square root of both sides

\sqrt{(x+4})^{2}  = \sqrt{0}\\ x+4 = 0\\

Subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation

x+4-4 = 0-4\\x = -4

Therefore the x intercept of the equation is -4
