Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two consecutive even integers:

a and b.

We know that we can write a even integer as:

a = 2*n

where n is an integer.

Then the consecutive integer to a, b, will be:

b = 2*n + 2.

Then the sum of a and b is:

a + b = 2n + 2n + 2 = 4*n + 2 = 2*(2n + 1) = k.

The next two consecutive integers greater than b will be:

c = 2n + 4

d = 2n + 6

then:

c + d = (2n + 4) + (2n + 6) = 4n + 10 = k + 4.

Which of the following points could be the initial point of vector v if it has a magnitude of 10 an the terminal point (-1,5)?

Eddi Din [679]

Let the initial point of the vector be (x,y). Then the magnitude of the vector v can be written as:

$|v|= \sqrt{ (-1-x)^{2} + (5-y)^{2} }$

The magnitude of vecor v is given to be 10. So we can write:

$10= \sqrt{ (-1-x)^{2} + (5-y)^{2} } \\ \\ 100=(-1-x)^{2} + (5-y)^{2}$

Now from the given options, we have to check which one satisfies the above equation. That point will be the initial point of the vector.

The point in option d, satisfies the equation.

$100=(-1+7)^{2} +(5+3)^{2} \\ \\ 
100=36+64 \\ \\ 
100=100$

Thus, the answer to this question is option D

Can someone help me with 11 A and B?

Elan Coil [88]

For 11a its 2:10 because how you would come up with it is by placing pablos free minutes first and then putting pablos paid minutes and 11b is8:25 because once again you would place sams free minutes first and then his paid minutes
