Two consecutive even whole numbers have a product of 360. What is the smaller of the two numbers

1 answer:

4 0

let one even number be N
and another even number be N(N+2)

N(N+2)=360
n^2+2n-360=0
n^2+20n-18n-360=0

value of N= -20 ,18
but -20 not accepted
smaller number 18

Can someone help me with this? Right answer gets brainliest!! :)

Sedbober [7]

I have 2 answers in mind

Answer #1:

$\frac{y}{z}$

Step-by-step explanation:

quotient means the answer to 2 things being divided so the quotient of y and z would be $\frac{y}{z}$ because there is no numerical value.

Answer #2:

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, when a letter is left by itself in an equation it usually has an invisible one in front of it. so when dividing y by z it would equal 1/1 which is equal to one.

Hope this helps :)

Part A: A circle is the set of all points that are the same distance from one given point. Find an example that contradicts this

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

a sphere

the definition needs to restrict all of the points to a plane

Step-by-step explanation:

In 3-dimensional Euclidean space, a sphere is the set of all points the same distance from a given point. The given definition of a circle only applies when the given point and the solution set are in the same plane, and the geometry is Euclidean.

Y varies directly as x. Y=42 when x=6. Find the value of y when x =15.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

y=120

Step-by-step explanation:

Y varies directly as x is written as

$y \alpha x$

introducing a constant

y=kx

from the question, when y=48, x=6

substitute it in the formula

48=6k

making k the subject by dividing through by 6

$\frac{48}{6} = \frac{6k}{6}$

k=48/6

k=8

put the value of k in the expression y=kx

y=8x

from the question,the value of y when x=15 is given by

y=8×15

y=120.
