Find three consecutive even integers such that the product of the first and the second is 8

Mathematics
1 answer:
OverLord2011 [107]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

-4, -2, 0  or -8, -6, -4

Step-by-step explanation:

#1 =x

#2 = x+2

#3 =  x+4

x(x+2) = -10(x+4) + 8

x^2 + 2x = -10x - 40 + 8

x^2 + 12x + 32 = 0

(x+8)(x+4) = 0

x = -8 or x = -4 so:

#1 = -8 or -4

#2 = -6 or -2

#3 = -4 or 0

Which of the following equations have infinitely many solutions?
olga55 [171]

The  following equations have infinitely many solutions:

6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8) ⇒ I

0.5(8x + 4) = 4x + 2 ⇒ II

2(6x + 4) = 4(3x + 2) ⇒ V

The answer is l, ll, and V ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has infinitely many solutions if:

  • The variable is disappeared
  • Then the numerical terms are equal

I.

∵ 6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8)

- Simplify the two sides

∵ 6(2x + 4) = 6(2x) + 6(4) = 12x + 24

∵ 3(4x + 8) = 3(4x) + 3(8) = 12x + 24

∴ 12x + 24 = 12x + 24

- Subtract 12x from both sides

∴ 24 = 24

- The variable disappear and two sides are equal

∴ The equation has infinitely many solutions

II.

∵ 0.5(8x + 4) = 4x + 2

- Simplify the left hand side

∵ 0.5(8x + 4) = 0.5(8x) + 0.5(4) = 4x + 2

∵ The right hand side is 4x + 2

∴ 4x + 2 = 4x + 2

- Subtract 4x from both sides

∴ 2 = 2

- The variable disappear and two sides are equal

∴ The equation has infinitely many solutions

III.

∵ 7x + 8 = 7(x + 8)

- Simplify the right hand side

∵ 7(x + 8) = 7(x) + 7(8) = 7x + 56

∴ 7x + 8 = 7x + 56

- Subtract 7x from both sides

∴ 8 = 56 ⇒ it can not be

∴ L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

∴ The equation has no solution

IV.

∵ 3x + 4 = 7x - 2

- Subtract 3x from both sides

∴ 4 = 4x - 2

- Add 2 to both sides

∴ 6 = 4x

- Divide both sides by 4

∴ 1.5 = x

∴ The equation has one solution

V.

∵ 2(6x + 4) = 4(3x + 2)

- Simplify the both sides

∵ 2(6x + 4) = 2(6x) + 2(4) = 12x + 8

∵ 4(3x + 2) = 4(3x) + 4(2) = 12x + 8

∴ 12x + 8 = 12x + 8

- Subtract 12x from both sides

∴ 8 = 8

- The variable disappear and two sides are equal

∴ The equation has infinitely many solutions

The  following equations have infinitely many solutions:

6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8) ⇒ I

0.5(8x + 4) = 4x + 2 ⇒ II

2(6x + 4) = 4(3x + 2) ⇒ V

The measure of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is 92. Find the measure of a base angle
Andrej [43]

Answer:

44°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle = 180°

In an isosceles triangle the base angles are equal, thus

base angle = \frac{180-92}{2} = \frac{88}{2} = 44°
