Answer:
The numbers are 4 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let:
- x - the smaller even consecutive integer
- x+2 - the larger even consecutive integer
we know that
![x^{2} =(x+2)+10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B2%7D%20%3D%28x%2B2%29%2B10)
solve for x
![x^{2} -x-12=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B2%7D%20-x-12%3D0)
We can use the quadratic formula for quadratics in the form ![ax^{2} +bx+c=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=ax%5E%7B2%7D%20%2Bbx%2Bc%3D0)
![x= \frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac}}{2a}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B-b%28%2B%2F-%29%5Csqrt%7Bb%5E%7B2%7D%20-4ac%7D%7D%7B2a%7D)
to give us an answer of 4 and -3
Since the question states positive and even we use 4 and that gives us 6 as the other answer
4 and 6
F(3)= 9 bc 4(3)=12 12-3=9
I think its 125, because you can fit 5 cubes across, 5 cubes from one side to the other side, and you can stack 5 cubes up so 5*5*5= 125
