Answer:

10 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

let the consecutive even integers be n and n + 2 , then

n² - 64 = 3(n + 2) ← distribute parenthesis

n² - 64 = 3n + 6 ( subtract 3n + 6 from both sides )

n² - 3n - 70 = 0 ← in standard form

(n - 10)(n + 7) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for n

n - 10 = 0 ⇒ n = 10

n + 7 = 0 ⇒ n = - 7

Since n must be a positive even integer then n = 10 and n + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12

The 2 numbers are 10 and 12

Suppose c was a total membership cost for m the two equations that model c are c=30m+50 an c=20m+100
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

c = 30m + 50

c = 20m + 100

Required [Missing from the question]

At what month will the cost be equal

To do this, we equate both expressions

c = c

This gives:

30m + 50 = 20m + 100

Collect like terms

30m - 20m = 100 - 50

10m = 50\\

Solve for m

m = \frac{50}{10}

m = 5
