Tripling the greater of two consecutive even integers given the same result as subtracting 10fromm the lesser even integer. What

are the integers?

The integers are -8 and -6.

To find these, first assume that the first integer is x. Then, because it is an even integer, assume the next is x + 2. Now we can write an equation to solve.

Tripling the greater = subtracting 10 from the lesser

3(x + 2) = x - 10 ----> Distribute the 3

3x + 6 = x - 10 ----> Subtract x from both sides

2x + 6 = -10 ----> Subtract 6 from both sides

2x = -16 ----> Divide both sides by 2

x = -8

Which is the first integer. We then can determine that the second one, which is two higher than the first, would be -6.

While building a snowman, a large snowball is created so that the radius is changing at the rate of 5 inches per hour. How fast
diamong [38]

Answer:

2000π in³/s

or 6283.2 in³/s

Step-by-step explanation:

dr/dt = 5  

volume of sphere is given as

v = (4/3)(π)r³

differentitate wrt r

dv/dr = 3×4/3 ×π×r²

dv/dr = 4πr²

put r = 10

dv/dr = 4π(10)²

dv/dr = 400π

by chain rule

dv/dt = dv/dr ×dr/dt

dv/dt = 400π× 5

dv/dt = 2000π in³/s

or dv/dt =6283.2 in³/s

For what value of x does the function y=2/3x+1 have the same x and y coordinate
Brut [27]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=\frac{2}{3}x +1

If x is 3, then

y =\frac{2}{3}(3) +1

y=2+1

y=3

Both x and y equal 3. So, the value of x must be 3 for the function to have the same coordinate for x and y.
