Answer:

-4 is the larger integer

Step-by-step explanation:

n = smaller integer

n + 2 = larger integer

4(n+2) = n-10

4n + 8 =  n - 10

3n + 8 = -10

3n = -18

n = -6

n+2 = -4

Answer:

\huge \boxed{ \boxed{z = 3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand this</h3><h3>you need to know about:</h3>
  • equation
  • PEMDAS
<h3>let's solve:</h3>
  1. \sf simplify \: substraction :  \\  \frac{3}{ \frac{z - 2}{z} }  = 3z
  2. \sf simplify \: complex \: fractio n : \\  \frac{3z}{z - 2}  = 3z
  3. \sf cross \: multiplication :  \\ 3z = 3z(z - 2)
  4. \sf divide \: both \: sides \: by \:  3z :  \\  \frac{3z}{3z} =   \frac{3z(z - 2)}{3z} \\ 1 = z - 2
  5. \sf add \: 2 \: to \: bot h  \: sides :  \\  z - 2 +  2 = 1 + 2 \\ \therefore \: z = 3

Drag expressions to complete each equation.
Ainat [17]
A^-b is the same as 1/a^b.

When there is a negative power, place the number and power over 1.

a^b/a^c = a^(b-c).

c is a negative power, because it is being divided, and is underneath b, which is a positive (and so it stays in the numerator).

a^c/b^c = (a/b)^c

Inside this one, the power of c is distributed to all numbers inside the parenthesis, in this case a and b.

Y is directly proportional to x^2. It is known that y=10 for a particular value of x. Find the value of y when the value of x is
Mandarinka [93]
<span>Y is directly proportional to x^2. It could be represented by the expression:

y </span>α x^2

We can make it into an equality by inserting the proportionality constant, k.

y = kx^2

k would be constant for any value of y with a corresponding value of x. We solve the problem by this concept as follows:

y1/(x1)^2 = y2/(x2)^2
10/(x1)^2 = y2/(x1/2)^2
10/4 = y2

Therefore, when the value of x is halved, y is equal to 10/4.
