3 0

Let no be x

Acc to ques

X + 2(1/x) = 3

X + 2/x = 3

X^2 + 2 = 3x

X^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

X^2 - x - 2x + 2 = 0

X (x-1) - 2 (x-1) = 0

(x-2) (x-1) = 0

X= 2 or x =1

Find 3 consecutive even integers if their sum decreased by 10 equals -22
Orlov [11]
Three consecutive even integers can be represented by x, (x+2), and (x+4).

(x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)) - 10 = -22   Get rid of the parentheses
    x + x + 2 + x + 4 - 10 = -22   Combine like terms (x + x + x) and (2 + 4 - 10)
                               3x - 4 = -22   Add 4 to both sides
                                    3x = -18   Divide
                                      x = -6
Check you work.

x = -6
x + 2 = -4
x + 4 = -2

(-6 - 4 - 2) - 10 = 22
-12 - 10 = -22

So, your three integers are -6, -4, and -2 .

Match the following items.
Novosadov [1.4K]

The Matchup are:

1. 1/3(24+15)=1/3•24+1/3•15 -  distributive property

2. 101+(29+417) = (101+29) + 417 -  associative property of addition.

3. (-14)+81 = 81 + (-14) - commutative property of addition.

4. -72 +0=-72 - additive identity.

5. 13/17•17/13=1 -multiplicative inverse.

<h3>What is a distributive property?</h3>

The distributive Property is one that connote the fact that if a factor is said to be multiplied by the sum or the addition of two terms, it is vital to multiply all of the two numbers by using the factor, and lastly carry out the addition operation.

Hence, The Matchup are:

1. 1/3(24+15)=1/3•24+1/3•15 -  distributive property

2. 101+(29+417) = (101+29) + 417 -  associative property of addition.

3. (-14)+81 = 81 + (-14) - commutative property of addition.

4. -72 +0=-72 - additive identity.

5. 13/17•17/13=1 -multiplicative inverse.
