Let x = small number
Let y = large number
Because they are consecutive even numbers,they must have a difference of 2:
y-x=2
y=2+x
Eqn 1: x+(2+x)=14
Eqn 2: x(2+x)=48
2x+2=14
2x=12
x=6
This means y must be 8
so your two numbers are 6 and 8
There are 6 pints 14 ounces left. But with you need in quarts and ounces it would be <span>3 quarts 14 ounces.
Hope this helps!</span>
1). The inequality says "height is 54 or more".

C). misses the lowest 3 students completely
D). OK, but the first and last intervals aren't needed,
because nobody's cans are in those intervals
Answer:
If you have given an equation, you see the x and y in it. Just taking second equation and think any common factor between x's variable. With common factor, multiply both and you will find the value of y and put it in any equation, you will find the value of X.
