Answer:

378 and 380

Step-by-step explanation:

The two even consecutive numbers that add up to 758 are going to be very close to half of 758. This is because two half of 758 are going to be the most similar addends of 758. This is important because the answers will be consecutive and therefore, must also be very similar. To solve, first, divide 758 by 2. This is 379, which is not an even number. So, to find the needed addends subtract and add 1 to 379. Both of these will be even and consecutive. These two numbers are 378 and 380. Then, to check you, can add them and see that they do sum 758.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number = x

Let the second number = x + 2

x + x + 2 = 758                      Collect like terms

2x + 2 = 758                         Subtract 2

2x = 758 - 2                          Combine

2x = 756                                Divide by 2

2x/2 = 756/2

x = 378

The first number is 378

The second number 380

If your teacher is really fussy, you can do it this way.

Let the first number = 2x

Let the second number = 2x + 2

The reason for this is to guarantee that both numbers were even to start with.

2x + 2x+2 = 758                    Combine like terms

4x + 2 = 758                          Subtract 2

4x = 756                                Divide by 4

x = 756/4

x = 189

Therefore 2x = 378

2x + 2 = 380                 Just as before.

Answer:

2x+3y=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the line is y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The line is parallel to 2x+3y=3, slope of both the lines will be same.

Find the slope of 2x+3y=3

3y=3-2x\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x+1

Slope of line=-\frac{2}{3}

m=-\frac{2}{3}

So the line will be y=-\frac{2}{3}x+b

It passes through (3,-4).

-4=-\frac{2}{3}\times 3+b\\-4=-2+b\\b=-2\\

Hence the line is y=-\frac{2}{3}x-2

y=-\frac{2}{3}x-2\\3y=-2x-6\ \ \ \ \ \ \ (Multiply both sides by 3)\\2x+3y=-6

Answer:

The rise is -5 the run is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) =

ΔY

ΔX

=

-5

4

=

-1.25

θ =  

arctan(

ΔY

) + 360°

ΔX

=

308.65980825409°

ΔX = 2 – -2 = 4

ΔY = -1 – 4 = -5

Distance (d) = √ΔX2 + ΔY2 = √41 = 6.4031242374328

Equation of the line:

y = -1.25x + 1.5

or

y =  

-

5

x

4

+  

3

2

When x=0, y = 1.5

When y=0, x = 1.2
