<h3 /><h3>▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄</h3><h3>Required Solution :</h3>

Let the first even number be 'x' & the second even number be (x + 2)

<u>According to the Question</u>,

⇒x + (x + 2) = 34

⇒x + x + 2 = 34

⇒2x + 2 = 34

⇒2x = 34 - 2

⇒2x = 32

⇒x = 32/2

⇒x = 16

⇒First even number = x = 16

⇒Second even number = (x + 2) = 16 + 2 = 18

<u>∴</u><u> </u><u>The t</u><u>wo consecutive even n</u><u>u</u><u>m</u><u>b</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>s</u><u> are 16 & 18</u> ...!

<h3>Verefication : </h3>

As, In our Question it was given that "The sum of two consecutive even numbers is thirty-four". So, as we got our two consecutive even numbers as 16 & 18 ... By this, we can say that these both even numbers should be equals to 34, i.e., 16 + 18 = 34. Hence, The equation which we formed is correct ...!

An algebraic expression is a phrase in mathematics that consists of numbers such as 1,2,3 and the like, variables which are represented with letters and operations like addition, multiplication, subtraction and division. It is usually used to represent a certain situation which would relate the variables involved. To write the algebraic expression for the problem statement above, we do as follows:

Let x = number of consoles to be bought
      y = number of games to be bought
      z = number of controllers to bebought
     C = total cost of all

The total cost would be equal to the sum of the price multiplied by the number of consoles, games and controllers bought. We write the algebraic expression as follows,

C = 299x + 59.99y + 29.99z

What are the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial?<br> 3u+12u'-7u* +1
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the given polynomial is

3u + 12 {u}^{2}  - 7 {u}^{3}  + 1

We then rewrite in decreasing powers of u, to get:

- 7 {u}^{3}  + 12 {u}^{2}  + 3u + 1

The leading term is

- 7 {u}^{3}

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the leading term.

The leading coefficient is -7.

Diego wants to find 4 1/5 - 7/10 .. Explain why he must rename 4 1/5 in order to do the subtraction?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

<u>The result is 3 1/2 and this is the explanation why Diego must convert 4 1/5 from mixed number to improper fraction.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the steps Diego should follow to find 4 1/5 - 7/10:

Step 1: Convert all mixed numbers into improper fractions.

4 1/5 = 21/5 - 7/10

Step 2: Find a common denominator between the improper fractions. When necessary, create equivalent fractions.

21/5 = 42/10 - 7/10

Step 3: Add or subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same.

42 - 7 = 35/10

Step 4: If the answer is an improper form, reduce the fraction into a mixed number.

35/10 = 3 5/10 = 3 1/2

<u>The result is 3 1/2 and this is the explanation why Diego must convert 4 1/5 from mixed number to improper fraction.</u>
