An even integer can be represented by the expression 2n, where n is any integer. Find three consecutive even integers that have

a sum of 54. The three consecutive even integers, in order from least to greatest, are , , and . Explain your reasoning. Expressions for the next two consecutive even integers after 2n are and . Solving the equation =54, and substituting the solution into the expressions for the three integers results in the three integers given above.

As consecutive odd numbers differ by two (example: 3, 5, 7), the first odd number can be expressed as 2n + 1, the next can be found by adding two to the first to get 2n + 1 + 2 which simplifies to 2n + 3. Finally the expression for the third consecutive odd integer can be found by adding two to the previous, 2n + 3, to get 2n + 5. Adding these three together and setting them equal to your sum gets the equation

2n + 1 + 2n + 3 + 2n + 5 = 63

Combine like terms and solve For n.

Once you have n, you must substitute it back into your three expressions (2n + 1, 2n + 3, 2n + 5) to find the three odd integers.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

A) f^{-1}(n)= (n+2)^3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) = \sqrt[3]{n} -2

y = \sqrt[3]{n} -2

y = n^{1/3}-2

n = y^{1/3} -2

n + 2 = y^{1/3}

y = (n + 2) ^3

f^{-1}(n) = (n + 2)^3

Hope this helps!

dangina [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the differential equation

dy/dx = 5x^4(1 + y²)^(3/2)

First, separate the variables

dy/(1 + y²)^(3/2) = 5x^4 dx

Now, integrate both sides

To integrate dy/(1 + y²)^(3/2), use the substitution y = tan(u)

dy = (1/cos²u)du

So,

dy/(1 + y²)^(3/2) = [(1/cos²u)/(1 + tan²u)^(3/2)]du

= (1/cos²u)/(1 + (sin²u/cos²u))^(3/2)

Because cos²u + sin²u = 1 (Trigonometric identity),

The equation becomes

[1/(1/cos²u)^(3/2) × 1/cos²u] du

= cos³u/cos²u

= cosu

Integral of cosu = sinu

But y = tanu

Therefore u = arctany

We then have

cos(arctany) = y/√(1 + y²)

Now, the integral of the equation

dy/(1 + y²)^(3/2) = 5x^4 dx

Is

y/√(1 + y²) = x^5 + C

So

y - (x^5 + C)√(1 + y²) = 0

is the required implicit solution
