The extraneous root is
x = 2
The numbers are: 2n and (2n+2)
we can suggest this equation:
4(2n)=2(2n+2)-12
We compute this equation:
8n=4n+4-12
8n-4n=-8
4n=-8
n=-8/4
n=-2
we compute the numbers:
2n=2(-2)=-4
2n+2=-4+2=-2
answer: the numbers are -4 and -2.
Answer:
16.5 year
Step-by-step explanation:
Using, mean = sum/no. *of observations
Here,
=> 16.2 = (sum of ages of boys)/18
=> 16.2 x 18 = sum of ages of boys
=> 291.6 = sum of ages of boys
Similarly, sum of ages of girls = 27 x 16.7 = 450.9
Mean(total) = (sumof agesof boys + girls)/45
Mean = (291.6 + 450.9)/45 = 16.5

Problem #1:
At the dealership where she works, Sade fulfilled 3/10 of her quarterly sales goal in January and another 1/10 of her sales goal in February. What fraction of her quarterly sales goal had Sade reached by the end of February?
3/10 + 1/10 = 4/10
4/10 of her goal.

Problem #2:
Shane has been monitoring his mileage. According to last week's driving log, he drove 1/10 of a mile in his car and 9/10 of a mile in his truck. How far did Shane drive last week in all?
1/10 + 9/10 = 10/10 = 1
Shane drove 1 mile.

Problem #3:
For a class experiment, Vina's class weighed a log before and after subjecting it to termites. Before subjecting it to termites, the log weighed 7/10 of a pound. After the termites, the log weighed 3/10 of a pound. How much weight did the termites take from the log?
7/10 - 3/10 = 4/10
The termites took 4/10 pound away from the log.
