Answer:

<h3>              10, 12, 14</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive even integers increase by 2.

x   ← an integer

2x  ← an even integer (the smallest)

2x+2   ← next even integer consecutive to 2x (the middle one)

2x+2+2=2x+4  ← the last even integer consecutive to 2x+2 (the largest)

2(2x+2)    ← twice the middle number

2x+2(2x+2)   ←  the sum of the smallest number and twice the middle

2x+4+20   ←  20 more than the largest number

2x + 2(2x + 2) = 2x + 4 + 20

2x + 4x + 4 = 2x + 24

            -4           -4

            6x = 2x + 20

         -2x       -2x

            4x = 20

            ÷2     ÷2

            2x = 10

2x+2 = 10+2 = 12

2x+4 = 10+4 = 14

The pressure, p, with which water passes through a pipe varies inversely as the square of the pipe's radius, 2. If k is the cons
iragen [17]

The variation equation is p = kr^2

<h3>How to determine the variation equation?</h3>

The variables are give as:

Pressure = P

Radius= r

The direct variation from p to the square of r is represented as:

p\ \alpha\ r^2

Express as an equation

p = kr^2

Where k represents the constant of variation

Hence, the variation equation is p = kr^2

I’m studying for my Sat later in the month, and even using the answer key I don’t understand how to solve this question. Help?
shepuryov [24]

So with this equation, since the volume of the cylinder is 96 pi, plug that into the V variable, and since the radius of one of the marbles is 3, plug that into the r variable. From here, we can solve for x: 96\pi =24\pi +x(\frac{4}{3}\pi*3^3)

Firstly, solve the parentheses: 96\pi =24\pi +x(\frac{4}{3}\pi*27)\\ 96\pi =24\pi +x(36\pi)

Next, multiply 36 pi and x: 96\pi = 24\pi +36\pi x

Next, subtract 24 pi on both sides: 72\pi =36\pi x

Lastly, divide both sides by 36 pi, and your answer will be 2=x, or B.

What is the solution to (-7)=e/3+14
amm1812
To work this out, we must use the balancing method - whatever we do to one side, we do exactly the same to the other

     -7 = e/3 + 14
(-14)            (-14)
-7 - 14 = -21

-21 = e/3
(x3)   (x3)
-21 x 3 = -63
-63 = e

e = -63
