Answer: 14
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Consecutive even numbers would be {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ...}
Let x represent the smallest number, then x + 2 is the middle number and x + 4 is the largest number.
1st number: x
2nd number: x + 2
3rd number: x + 4
1st number + 2nd number + 3rd number = Sum
(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 48
3x + 6 = 48
3x = 42
x = 14
1st number: x ⇒ x = 14
2nd number: x + 2 ⇒ 14 + 2 = 16
3rd number: x + 4 ⇒ 14 + 4 = 18
<u>Check:</u>
14 + 16 + 18 = 48
Answer:
a.- slope= 36
Interpretation : The cable car travels 36 meter per minute
b.- y = 36x + 100
c.- 640 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
a.-
Find slope using the slope formula :
Plug in the two given points:
Subtract the numbers :
Reduce the fraction : 36
b.-
Using the given y-interspet (100) and the slope create an equation: y = 36x + 100
c.-
Using the equation you created plug in 15 for x to find the
distance: y = 36 (15) + 100
Multiply the numbers : y = 540 + 100
Add the numbers : y = 640
<u>Answer:</u>
A. (x+5)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given a quadratic expression which we will factorize to see which of the given options is a binomial factor of it.
Finding the factors of 15 such that when added, they give a result of 8.
Therefore, we can see that is that binomial factor that is present in the given options so option A. (x+5) is the correct answer.
