Answer:

They are 46, 48, 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

An even number is a multiple of

2

, then can be written as 2n. The next even number after

2

n

is

2

n

+

2

and the following is

2

n

+

4

.

So you are asking for which value of

n

it you have

(

2

n

)

+

(

2

n

+

2

)

+

(

2

n

+

4

)

=

144

I solve it for

n

6

n

+

6

=

144

n

=

138

6

=

23

.

The three numbers are

2

n

=

2

⋅

23

=

46

2

n

+

2

=

46

+

2

=

48

2

n

+

4

=

46

+

4

=

50

Ind the equation of the tangent line to 9x^2+16y^2=52 through (2, -1)
EastWind [94]
Here are the steps.

In order to get the answer, first we need to get the x and y value of the center of the circle by using the equation of a circle (x^2 + y^2 = r^2)

<span>The center is (-9, -4)</span>

Once you get the center point, find the equation of the line (in a form of a radius) from the center point to point (2, -1). Get the slope.

The slope from center to point (2, -1) is 11/3

Finally, get the negative reciprocal of the slope from the previous step and form the equation using slope-intercept form ( y=mx + b). Then, that's the equation of the tangent line.

The slope of the tangent line is -3/11
The equation is y = -3/11x - 5/11
