Answer:

the number is 33 and 35 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Let us assume X and X + 2 are the two consecutive odd integers

Now the equation is

(X ÷ 3) = ((X + 2) ÷ 7) + 6

(X ÷ 3) = (X + 2 + 6 × 7) ÷ 7

(X ÷ 3) = (X + 2 + 42) ÷ 7

(X ÷ 3) = (X + 44) ÷ 7

Now do the cross multiplication

7X = 3(X + 44)

7X = 3X + 132

4X = 132

X = 33

And, X + 2 = 33 + 2 = 35

hence, the number is 33 and 35 respectively

The slope and intercept form is the form of the straight line equation that includes the value of the slope of the line

Neither
║
Neither
⊥
║
Neither
Neither
Neither

Reason:

The slope and intercept form is the form y = m·x + c

Where;

m = The slope

Two equations are parallel if their slopes are equal

Two equations are perpendicular if the relationship between their slopes, m₁, and m₂ are; $m_1 = -\dfrac{1}{m_2}$

1. The given equations are in the slope and intercept form

$\ y = 3 \cdot x + 1$

The slope, m₁ = 3

$y = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot x + 1$

The slope, m₂ = $\dfrac{1}{3}$

Therefore, the equations are <u>neither</u> parallel or perpendicular

Neither

2. y = 5·x - 3

10·x - 2·y = 7

The second equation can be rewritten in the slope and intercept form as follows;

$y = 5 \cdot x -\dfrac{7}{2}$

Therefore, the two equations are <u>parallel</u>

║

3. The given equations are;

-2·x - 4·y = -8

-2·x + 4·y = -8

The given equations in slope and intercept form are;

$y = 2 -\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x$

Slope, m₁ = $-\dfrac{1}{2}$

$y = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x - 2$

Slope, m₂ = $\dfrac{1}{2}$

The slopes

Therefore, m₁ ≠ m₂

$m_1 \neq -\dfrac{1}{m_2}$

The lines are <u>Neither</u> parallel nor perpendicular

<u>Neither</u>

4. The given equations are;

2·y - x = 2

$y = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x +1$

m₁ = $\dfrac{1}{2}$

y = -2·x + 4

m₂ = -2

Therefore;

$m_1 \neq -\dfrac{1}{m_2}$

Therefore, the lines are <u>perpendicular</u>

⊥

5. The given equations are;

4·y = 3·x + 12

-3·x + 4·y = 2

Which gives;

First equation, $y = \dfrac{3}{4} \cdot x + 3$

Second equation, $y = \dfrac{3}{4} \cdot x + \dfrac{1}{2}$

Therefore, m₁ = m₂, the lines are <u>parallel</u>

║

6. The given equations are;

8·x - 4·y = 16

Which gives; y = 2·x - 4

5·y - 10 = 3, therefore, y = $\dfrac{13}{5}$

Therefore, the two equations are <u>neither</u> parallel nor perpendicular

<u>Neither</u>

7. The equations are;

2·x + 6·y = -3

Which gives $y = -\dfrac{1}{3} \cdot x - \dfrac{1}{2}$

12·y = 4·x + 20

Which gives

$y = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot x + \dfrac{5}{3}$

m₁ ≠ m₂

$m_1 \neq -\dfrac{1}{m_2}$

<u>Neither</u>

8. 2·x - 5·y = -3

Which gives; $y = \dfrac{2}{5} \cdot x +\dfrac{3}{5}$

5·x + 27 = 6

$x = -\dfrac{21}{5}$

Therefore, the slopes are not equal, or perpendicular, the correct option is <u>Neither</u>

Considering the expression x/2 + y2. Which statements are true?Mark all that apply.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

D. 8/2 +(-10)² = 104

Step-by-step explanation:

To find which statements are true, evaluate the expression for the given variable values. You do this by putting the numbers in place of the respective variables, then doing the arithmetic.

The respective expression values are ...

A 83 ≠ 37 . . . . (4/2) +9² = 2 +81 = 83

B 31 ≠ 61

C 52 ≠ 61

D 104 =104 . . . . true statement

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle\\\sum\limits _{k=0}^n\frac{n!}{k!*(n-k)!}a^{n-k}b^k .\\\\k=0\\\frac{n!}{0!*(n-0)!}a^{n-0}b^0=C_n^0a^n*1=C_n^0a^n.\\\\ k=1\\\frac{n!}{1!*(n-1)!} a^{n-1}b^1=C_n^1a^{n-1}b^1.\\\\k=2\\\frac{n!}{2!*(n-2)!} a^{n-2}b^2=C_n^2a^{n-2}b^2.\\\\k=n\\\frac{n!}{n!*(n-n)!} a^{n-n}b^n=C_n^na^0b^n=C_n^nb^n.\\\\C_n^0a^n+C_n^1a^{n-1}b^1+C_n^2a^{n-2}b^2+...+C_n^nb^n=(a+b)^n.$
