liberstina [14]

<span>two consecutive even integers are x and x + 2
3(x + 2) - x = 42
3x + 6 -x = 42
2x = 36
x = 18
answer
smaller number: 18
bigger number: 18 + 2 = 20

Find the values of a and b such that<br> x^2 + 3x + 4 = (x + a)^2+ b

sesenic [268]

Answer:

$x {}^{2} + 3x + 4 = (x + a) {}^{2} + b \\ x {}^{2} + 3x + 4 = x {}^{2} + 2ax + a {}^{2} + b \\ = x {}^{2} + a {}^{2} + 2ax + b \\ 2a = 3 \\ b = 4 \\ a = \frac{3}{2} \\ b = 4$

which equation shows the point-slope form of the line that passes through (3, 2) and has a slope of 1/3 ?

denis23 [38]

Answer:

$y-2=\frac{1}{3}(x-3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line into point slope-form is equal to

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

in this problem we have

$m=\frac{1}{3}$

$(x1,y1)=(3,2)$

substitute the values in the formula

$y-2=\frac{1}{3}(x-3)$
