The sum of two consecutive odd intergers is 32. Find the intergers.

1 answer:

4 0

So let the smaller integer be 2x+1 and the larger one be 2x+3. So 2x+1+2x+3 is 32. Simplifying, we get 4x+4=32. So subtracting 2 from both sides we get 4x+2=30. So dividing by 2 we get 2x+1=15. So 2x+3 is 17. So the numbers are 15 and 17

Change the line 3x − 8y = 5 into slope-intercept form.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Slope is y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept

solve for y basically

3x-8y=5
minus 3x both sides
-8y=-3x+5
divide both sides by -8
$y=\frac{3}{8}x-\frac{5}{8}$

Expand (4x-3y)^4 using pascal's triangle ...?

jenyasd209 [6]

Using row 4:

coefficients are: 1, 4, 6, 4, 1 

a^4 + a^3b + a^2b^2 + ab^3 + b^4 

Now adding the coefficients: 

1a^4 + 4a^3b + 6a^2b^2 + 4ab^3 + 1b^4 

Substitute a and b: 

a = 4x 

b = -3y 

1(4x)^4 + 4(4x)^3(-3y) + 6(4x)^2(-3y)^2 + 4(4x)(-3y)^3 + 1(-3y)^4 

Now simplify the above: 

256x^4 - 768x^3y + 864x^2y^2 - 432xy^3 + 81y^4
