Find four consecutive even integers whose sum is 84. Find the integers.

1 answer:

4 0

Suppose the integers are n , n+2 , n+4 and n+6.
84=n+(n+2)+(n+4)+(n+6)=4n+12.
Subtract 12 from both ends to get.
72=4n.
Divide both ends by 4 to get.
n=18.
So the integers are: 18 , 20 , 22 , 24.

How many endpoints are needed to draw four line segments

Paladinen [302]

If these four line segments are connected (kind of like a square) then only 4 endpoints are needed, but if they are all separate line segments, then you would need a maximum of 8 endpoints because any line segment has 2 endpoints and 4 line segments with 2 endpoints a piece equals 8 endpoints in total.

If 10,500 is decomposed in a compound interest account paying 2.99% interest annually, how much will be in the account after 5 y

Irina-Kira [14]

1) To work out the result after a percentage is applied to a number, you work out 'the percentage number/100' and write the answer of this calculation down. 2) You THEN multiply this calculated number (called the 'percentage multiplier') by your orginal number (called the 'principal'). 3) The result of this calculation gives you the answer of what happens when your orginal number is multiplied by a certain percentage. 4) Thus, for a 2.99% increase work out: " (100+2.99)/100 "
The answer is 1.029 - SO THIS is your percentage multiplier. 5) Your earn 2.99% interest each year for 5 years. Thus you multiply your principal (10,500) by the calculated percentage multiplier (1.029), BUT you you multiply the principal by this multiplier 5 TIMES! 6) So, the calulation is:10,500 × (1.029^5). 7) This EQUALS $12,113.403198) Rounded to the nearest cent, the final amount in the account AFTER 5 YEARS = $12,113.40 8) THE ANSWER IS THUS: $12,113.40

Alexis is knitting a blanket 2 meters long. Every 2 decimeters, she changes the color of the yarn to make stripes. How many stri

IgorC [24]

Answer:

There are 10 stripes in the blanket.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Length of blanket = 2 meters

1 meter = 10 decimeter

Length of blanket in decimeter =

$2\times 10 = 20\text{ decimeters}$

Change of color = Every 2 decimeters.

Number of stripe =

$=\dfrac{\text{Length of blanket}}{\text{Length of change of color of stripe}}\\\\=\dfrac{20}{2} = 10$

Thus, there are 10 stripes in the blanket.
