Answer:

let one even number be N

and another even number be N(N+2)

N(N+2)=360

n^2+2n-360=0

n^2+20n-18n-360=0

value of N= -20 ,18

but -20 not accepted

smaller number 18

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this answer you would need to use the formula x(x+2) = 360 where x is an even number.  This is the formula because any number plus 2 equals the next consecutive, even whole number.   If we look at the factors of 360 we see the factors-

360: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180, and 360.

If we look through all of the factors 18 and 20 are the only ones with a 2 number difference.

Next, if we plug 18 into the equation:

x(x+2) =360

18(18+2) = 360

324+36 = 360

360 = 360

Since the equation works, x = 18.

Circle towns limit form a perfectly circular shape that has a population of 20000 in the population density of 480 people per sq
Alex

Answer:

D =\frac{P}{\pi X^2}

And solving for the radius we got:

X = \sqrt{\frac{P}{\pi D}}

And replacing the data given we got:

X = \sqrt{\frac{480 \frac{people}{km^2}}{\pi *20000 people}}= 0.0874Km

And this value converted to meters is X = 87.40 m

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know the population size P = 20000 and we also know the population density D = 480 \frac{people}{km^2}

We can assume that the area is a circle. We also know that the formula for the population density is given by:

D= \frac{P}{A}

Where P represent the number of people and A the area. Since we are assuming a circle then the area is given by:

A = \pi X^2

With X the radius of the circle

And then the populationd density become:

D =\frac{P}{\pi X^2}

And solving for the radius we got:

X = \sqrt{\frac{P}{\pi D}}

And replacing the data given we got:

X = \sqrt{\frac{480 \frac{people}{km^2}}{\pi *20000 people}}= 0.0874Km

And this value converted to meters is X = 87.40 m
