Answer:

The 2 numbers = 81 and 83

Step-by-step explanation:

As, one number = x

The other, because it's an even number and consecutive = x + 2

So the larger numbef here is x + 2

And they are saying 3 times x + 2 plus x = 330

So let's solve!

3 times x + 2 = 3(x+2) = 3x + 6

So we will add it to x = (3x + 6) +(x) = 4x + 6

So they are saying the sum of them will be 330

So, 4x + 6 = 330

4x = 330 - 6

4x = 324

x = 324/4

x = 81

So x is the first number = 81

And the second is x + 2 = 81 + 2 = 83

So the 2 numbers are 81, 83

Lets check!

3 times the bigger number = 83 x 3 = 249

We will add it to 81 and we will get 330

So, 249 + 81 = 330

So the answer is right

1/3 of 3 is 1 so A is correct

3/4(1+3) is 3 so B is correct

But

1/4 × 3 is not 1 so C is not correct

3/4 ×1 is not 3 so D isn't correct

Find the slope of the line. <br> A: -2/3<br> B: 2/3 <br> C: 3:2<br> D: -3/2
tia_tia [17]

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (look at the picture) (0, 1) and (-2, -2). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{-2-1}{-2-0}=\dfrac{-3}{-2}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{2}}\to\boxed{D}
