Answer:

-4,2

Step-by-step explanation:

let \: two \: consecutive \: even \: numbers \: be \: x \: and \: x + 2 \\ so \: by \: the \: question \\  {x}^{2}  +  {(x + 2)}^{2}  = 20 \\ or \:  {x}^{2}  +  {x}^{2}  + 4x + 4 = 20 \\ or \: 2 {x}^{2}  + 4x = 20 - 4 \\ or \: 2( {x}^{2}   + 2x) = 16 \\ or {x}^{2}  + 2x = 8 \\ or \:  {x}^{2}  + 2x - 8 = 0 \\ or \:  {x}^{2}   + (4 - 2)x - 8 = 0 \\ or \:  {x}^{2}   + 4x  -  2x - 8 = 0 \\ or \: x(x + 4) - 2(x + 4) = 0 \\ or \: (x + 4)(x - 2) = 0 \\ either \: x + 4 = 0 \\ or \: x =  - 4 \\ or \: x - 2 = 0 \\ orx = 2

therefore, x= -4 and 2

Write an equation for the statement and then solve
Lunna [17]

Answer:

16.   30 * (30+12)/4*(L)*20

17.  Volume = 6300 * Length of rectangular prism

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of a rectangular prism is <u>30 cm</u>. This is  <u>12 more than one-fourth of the length</u>. Find the  volume of the prism, given the <u>height is 20 cm</u>.

Let L = length of rectangular prisim W = width and H = height

16.  

Volume of a rectangular prism is width * length * height

30 * (30+12)/4*(L)*20

17.  

= 30 * (30+12)1/4(L)*20

= 30 * (42/4)*L * 20

= 600 * 10.5 * L

= 6300 * L

Volume = 6300 * Length of rectangular prism
