Answer: 102

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be a, a+2 and a+4. Since the sum of three consecutive even numbers is 312, this will be:

a + a+2 + a+4 = 312

3a + 6 = 312

3a = 312 - 6

3a = 306

a= 306/3

a = 102

Therefore, the smallest number is 102.

Other numbers are 104 and 106.

Find the midpoint of the line segment given the endpoints.<br><br> (-1, 10) (-1, 6)
BaLLatris [955]

The midpoint of these two points is (-1, 8).

In order to find the midpoint, you must take the average of each part of the coordinates. You do this by adding them together and dividing by 2. We'll start with the x-coordinates.

(-1 + -1)/2 = -1

Now we'll use the y-coordinates.

(10 + 6)/2 = 8

This gives us the ordered pair of (-1, 8)

the third side of an isosceles triangle is 8 inches shorter than the other two sides the perimeter of the triangle is 70 inches
dezoksy [38]
Isosceles triangle has 2 sides that are the same length. So what you have is three sides that measure: x, x, and (x-8). 70 = x + x + (x-8).
70 = x + x + x - 8
78 = 3x
x = 26.
and 26 - 8 = 18.
So two of your sides are 26 inches and the last side is 18 inches.
