6 0

Answer:

6, 8 and 10  and  -2, 0, 2

There are two roots x = -2 and 6,    

but the since I don't believe 0 is an even number the answer is 6, 8 and 10

I was incorrect according to G0ggle zero is an even number so another answer is  -2, 0, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

read the question and convert the English to mathematics

x, y and z    even consecutive number

y = x+2

z = y+2 = x+4

and

xyz = x³ + y² + 2z²                                   substitiute x terms  in for y and z

x(x+2)(x+4)  = x³ + (x+2)² + 2(x+4)²           solve for x by graphing on DEMOS

                                                                 x = -2, 6  solved algebraically below

x = -2   y=0   z=2

x = 6    y=8   z=10

Checked both answers

xyz = x³ + y² + 2z²

-2(0)2 = -8 + 0 + 8                  when x = -2

   0   =  0

and

6(8)(10)  =  6³ + 8² +2(10)²      when x = 6

   480   =  216+64+200

             =  480

x(x+2)(x+4)  = x³ + (x+2)² + 2(x+4)²                           solved algebraically

(x²+2x)(x+4)   = x³ + x² +4x +4 + 2x² + 16x + 32

x³ + 6x² + 8x = x³ + x² +4x +4 + 2x² + 16x + 32

x³ + 6x² + 8x = x³ + 3x² + 20x + 36

      3x² - 12x - 36 = 0         factor out the 3

      3[x² - 4x - 12] = 0

       3(x+2)(x-6) = 0     x = -2 and -12

Please help with the answer below
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

f(x) =  \frac{x + 7}{6 - x}  \\  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{x + 7}{6 - x}  \\ 3(6 - x) = 2(x + 7) \\ 18 - 3x = 2x + 14 \\  - 3x - 2x = 14 - 18 \\  - 5x =  - 4 \\  \frac{ - 5x}{ - 5}  =   \frac{ - 4}{ - 5}  \\ x =  \frac{4}{5}
