Step-by-step explanation:

let,two even consecutive number be x and x+2

now,according to the question

x+x+2=186

or, 2x=186-2

or, 2x= 184

or, x= 184/2

:- x= 92

Hence,

x=92 and x+2= 94

two even consecutive numbers are 92 and 94

Answer:

92 is the smaller even integer

Step-by-step explanation:

x = first even integer

x+2 = second even integer

(x) + (x+2) = 186

Combine like terms

2x+2 = 186

Subtract 2 from each side

2x+2-2 =186-2

2x = 184

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 184/2

x = 92

x+2 = 94

HOW MANY BASEBALLS CAN FIT INTO THE TRACTOR TRAILER. THE TRAILER DIMENSIONS ARE 301.5"L X 96.99"W X 105.04"H AND CIRCUMFERENCE R

Shkiper50 [21]

Volume of tractor = length x width x height = 301.5 x 96.99 x 105.04 = 3,071,630.624

For baseballs of 9 inches:
$9=2\pi r \\ \\ r= \frac{9}{2\pi}$

Volume = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3= \frac{4}{3} \pi \left( \frac{9}{2\pi} \right)^3=12.31$

Number of 9 inches baseballs = $\frac{3,071,630.624}{12.31} = 249,513$

For baseballs of 9.25 inches:
$9.25=2\pi r \\ \\ r= \frac{9.25}{2\pi}$

Volume = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3= \frac{4}{3} \pi \left( \frac{9.25}{2\pi} \right)^3=13.37$

Number of 9.25 inches baseballs = $\frac{3,071,630.624}{13.36} = 229,824$

Therefore, the tractor can contain between 229,824 and 249,513 baseballs.

Alla [95]

Answer:

you also have to translate 3 units to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

when you finished your reflections the coordinate of the point is (1, -1) while it should be (4, -4), that means you not only need to move it by 3 down but also to the right.
