Now that we’ve learned how to solve word problems involving the sum of consecutive integers, let’s narrow it down and this time, focus on word problems that only involve finding the sum of consecutive even integers.
But before we start delving into word problems, it’s important that we have a good understanding of what even integers, as well as consecutive even integers, are.
Even Integers
We know that even numbers are integers that can be divided exactly or evenly by 22. Thus, the general form of the even integer nn, is n = 2kn=2k, where kk is also an integer.
In other words, since even numbers are the multiples of 22, we can represent an even integer nn by 2k2k, where kk is also an integer. So if we have the even integers 1010 and 1616,
The line passes through two points that have the same x-coordinate.
It is a vertical line. To find the slope of a line, use any two points. Subtract the y-coordinates. Subtract the x-coordinates in the same order. Then divide the difference of the y-coordinates by the difference of the x-coordinates. Since in this case, the x-coordinates are both -6, the difference between the x-coordinates is zero. Division by zero is not defined, so the slope of this line is undefined. You can't write its equation in point-slope form, because there is no slope for this line.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can easily find the determinant of a matrix of which will be the cofactor of 2. Multiplying the diagonal elements of the matrix, we get. Now subtract the value of the second diagonal from the first, i.e, 48 – 3 = 45. Check the sign that is assigned to the number
Nancy has 54 pieces of paper, and is going to split them all between her and 5 friends. How many pieces of paper will each person receive?
The formula for slope is
m= (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)
you can plug in the points that you are given to find the slope
m= (-1-2)/(2-(-4)
m= -3/6
the slope is -3/6 which reduced to -1/2
so the answer would be
c) -1/2
hope this helped!
