Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Unknown number = x

If twice the difference of x and 8 is 6:

2(x-8) = 6

2x-16 = 6

2x = 6 + 16

2x = 22

x = 22/2

x = 11

The sum of two consecutive positive even integers is at most 14. List all possible pairs of integers.
anastassius [24]
Let X be the first number
there is a 2 numbers distance between each even number eg.2 ,4, 6, 8, etc.
So the 2nd number is X+2
The sum of the 1st and 2nd numbers = 14
X + X+2 =14
2X +2 =14
2X = 14-2
2X = 12
X = 12/2
X = 6
Therefore,
The first number i.e, X = 6
And the second number i.e, X+2 = 6+2 =8
******************************************************************************
This is the only positive pair in case of two consecutive numbers if the are even numbers but not consecutive there will be more pairs
12 + 2 = 14
10 + 4 = 14
8 + 6 = 14 (Already found)

Pretty sure ( -2,-7) because from -1 you go over one then each y is going down 3 so -4 - 3 is -7

50 points!!!!! Please!!!!! Sandra and Jenny spend a certain amount of money from their money box each month to buy plants. The t
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

A) Function 2 shows a greater rate of change because Jenny spends $6 each month and Sandra spends $5 each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept for Sandra is 55 and the slope is -5. While Jenny's y-intercept is 50 and slope is -6.

6 is a greater number therefore causing Jenny's slope to decrease faster causing her to have less money at a much faster rate. (rate of change=slope) Jeny's slope is decreasing at a faster rate of change because she is spending more money everyday than Sandra is.

Hope this helps! Have a great day! :)
