Answer:

Two consecutive even integers are 32 and 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive even integers are x and x+2.

ATQ,

Twice the smaller is 26 less than. 3 times the smaller

2x = 3(x-2) -26

2x = 3x-6-26

2x = 3x -32

32 = 3x-2x

x = 32

Hence, the smaller number be 32 and larger number be x+2 = 32+2 = 34.

Which of the following represents a quadratic function?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

○ $y = 6 + 5x + x^2$

Explanation:

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is an algebraic equation where the highest power of $x$ is 2. The general form of a quadratic equation is as follows:

$\boxed{ax^2 + bx + c = 0}$ ,

where a, b, and c represent known constants, and $x$ is the unknown.

In this question, if you take a look at the second option, you will see that it is possible to rearrange the equation to make it look the general form:

$y = 6 + 5x + x^2$

⇒ $y = x^2 + 5x + 6$

Therefore, this equation is quadratic.

The other three options are not quadratic equations because none of them have an $x^2$ term in them.

Solve the equation for x. 3 In(x) + 2 In (4)= In(128)

Scilla [17]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3 ln(x) + 2 ln (4)= ln(128)

a ln (b) = ln b^a

In(x^3) + In (4^2)= In(128)

In(x^3) + In (16)= In(128)

ln a + ln b = ln (ab)

In(16x^3) = In(128)

raise each side to the power of e

e^ In(16x^3) = e ^In(128)

e^ ln cancels out

(16x^3) = (128)

divide by 16

(16x^3)/16 = (128)/16

x^3 = 8

take the cube root on each side

(x^3)^1/3 = 8^ 1/3

x =2
