Answer:

correct

Step-by-step explanation:

She is correct.

For any integer, n, 5n is a multiple of 5.

5n + 3 is 3 more than a multiple of 5.

Start with 82. Subtract 3. Now you have 79.

79 is not a multiple of 5, so 5n + 3 will not contain the term 82.

The sum of 6 consecutive integers is 270. What is the second number in the sequence?

Rina8888 [55]

N+(n+1)+(n+2)+(n+3)+(n+4)+(n+5)=270
We use these terms to represent the first six consecutive integers in the sequence
Now we group like terms:
6n+15=270
Minus 15 from both sides of the equation
6n=255
n=42.5 which is not an integer
Is this a joke question?
Besides that, the 2nd number will be 43.5

A rectangle has a height of 4x ^ 3 width of x ^ 3 + 3x ^ 2 + 2x . Express the area of the entire rectangle .

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

$4x^6+12x^5+8x^4$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle, you need to multiply the width by the height. In this case:

$(4x^3)(x^3+3x^2+2x)=\\4x^6+12x^5+8x^4$

Hope this helps!

In Exercises 1-16, solve the inequality. Graph the solution<br> 1. 3y ≤ -9

murzikaleks [220]

By solving the inequality we get $y\leq -3$

What is graphing the inequality?

The act of illustrating which area of the number line contains values that will "satisfy" the specified inequality is known as graphing the inequality. Take a look at the first inequality, "x > -5." The numbers that can be used to substitute x in our inequality to produce a true statement can be shown on a graph of our inequality.

$3y\leq -9$
