Jared wanted to find three consecutive even integers whose sum was 4 times the first of those integers. He let k represent the f

irst integer, then wrote and solved this equation: k+ (k+1) + (k+2) = 4k. Did he get the correct answer? Explain

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

<span>Instead of k, k+1, k+2, you should use k, k+2, k+4 with the constraint that k is even (i.e. if you return an odd integer for k, or a non-integer, then return no solution). 

</span><span>k + (k+2) + (k+4) = 4k

</span><span>3k + 6 = 4k
k = 6 

</span><span>Indeed, 6+8+10 = 4*6.</span>

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let k be the first even integer

then, next even integer will be k+2

and the next consecutive even integer will be k+4

Sum of three consecutive even integers was 4 times the first of those integers.

i.e. k+(k+2)+(k+4)=4k

3k+6=4k

6=4k-3k

i.e. k=6

Jared wrote and solved the equation:

k+ (k+1) + (k+2) = 4k

i.e. 3k+3=4k

i.e. 4k-3k=3

i.e. k=3

No, he didn't get the correct answer

(since, he wrote 3 consecutive integers as k,k+1 and k+2 instead of k,k+2 and k+4)

Find the exact value of sin2 theta given sin theta =5/13, 90°&lt;theta &lt;180°
Zepler [3.9K]
Now, we know that 90°< θ <180°, that simply means the angle θ is in the II quadrant, where sine is positive and cosine is negative.

\bf sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{13}}\impliedby \textit{now let's find the \underline{adjacent side}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;c=hypotenuse\\&#10;a=adjacent\\&#10;b=opposite\\&#10;\end{cases}

\bf \pm\sqrt{13^2-5^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{144}=a\implies \pm 12 =a \implies \stackrel{II~quadrant}{-12=a}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;therefore \qquad cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{-12}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{13}}&#10;\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;sin(2\theta )\implies 2sin(\theta )cos(\theta )\implies 2\left(\frac{5}{13}  \right)\left( \frac{-12}{13} \right)\implies -\cfrac{120}{169}
