find two consecutive even numbers such that the sum of 3 times the smaller and 5 times the larger is 106

1 answer:

4 0

To find that you would do (such that x is the unknown) 3x+5(x+2)=106
and if you do this you will find that x=12

so the two numbers you are looking for are 12 and 14

The Frostburg-Truth bus travels on a straight road from Frostburg Mall to Sojourner Truth Park. The mall is 3 miles west and 2 m

Verizon [17]

To start, write your locations as points, with north and south being positive and negative y respectively and east and west being positive and negative x respectively. Doing this gives us the mall at (-3,-2) and the park at (4,5). Now, we use our distance formula $( \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 } )$ to solve for the unknown distance. Plugging in with the park values as our second values and our mall values as our first values (as well as with our unknown distance as d), we get $d= \sqrt{(4-(-3))^2+(5-(-2))^2} = \sqrt{(7)^2+(7)^2} = \sqrt{49+49} = \sqrt{98}$ . This square root can be rounded to 9.9 miles.
