Answer:
6.78 to nearest hundredth
Step-by-step explanation:
Just use your calculator
Lets x is the 1st consecutive even integers
x +2 :the 2nd consecutive even integers
x +4: the 3rd consecutive even integers
So sum of all 3 equals -78 then
x + (x+2) + (x+4) = -78
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = -78
Simplify
3x + 6 = -78
Subtract (-6) to both sides
3x +6 -6 = -78 - 6
Simplify
3x = -84
Divided both sides by 3
3x/3 = -84/3
x = -28
x + 2 = -28 + 2 = -26
x +4 = - 28 + 4 = -24
Double check: -28 + -26 + -24 = -78
So the three consecutive even integers are: -24, -26, -28
The smallest integer would be -28
Answer:
a) 49.41
b) not quite sure
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry
y-2 = 3(x+7) put it in y=mx+b form (slope intercept)
y-2 = 3(x+7) distribute 3
y-2 = 3x+21 add 2 to both sides
+2 +2
y = 3x + 23
so now the slope of that is 3 so the new equation has a slope of 3 because parallel slopes are equal.
my new line has a slope of 3 and point (4,2)
so we use point slope formula y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-2 =3(x-4) put it in y=mx+b form (slope intercept)
y-2 = 3(x-4) distribute 3
y-2 = 3x -12 add 2 to both sides
+2 +2
y = 3x + 10 which is you line slope intercept with parallel slope and contains (4,2)
