Let x,x+2,x+4,x+6 be 4 consecutive no then,

sum of first 3 no=4x+12

According to condition,

20 less than 5 times 4th= 4 more than sum of 1st,2nd and 3rd

5(x+6)-20=4+(sum of first 3 no)

5(x+6)-20=4+(4x+12)

5(x+6)-20=4x+16

5x+30-20=4x+16

5x+10=4x+16

5x-4x=16-10

x=6

So,

1st no=x=6

2nd no=x+2=8

3rd no=x+4=6+4=10

4th no=x+6=6+6=12

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The larger wheel is 10979.04098 more than the smaller wheel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The circumference of the great wheel was twelve thousand and forty-one thousandth inches.

C = 12000.041 inches

The circumference of the lesser wheel was only one thousand twenty-one and two hundred-thousand inches.

C' = 1021.00002 inches

We need to find how much larger was the great wheel. To find it, take the difference of C and C'.

C-C' = 12000.041 inches - 1021.00002 inches

= 10979.04098 inches

Hence, the larger wheel is 10979.04098 more than the smaller wheel.

Answer:

AB = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the secant- secant theorem, that is

PA × PB = PD × PC , substitute values

10(10 + AB) = 8(8 + 7)

100 + 10AB = 8 × 15 = 120 ( subtract 100 from both sides )

10AB = 20 ( divide both sides by 10 )

AB = 2
