<u>Answer</u>
6
<u>Explanation</u>
let n be the first even number in the sequence.
The 2nd term = n + 2
3rd term = n + 2 + 2
= n + 4
4th term = n + 4 + 2
= n + 6
The sum of these number = 36.
∴ n + (n +2) + (n + 4) + (n + 6) = 36
4n + 12 = 36
4n = 36 - 12
4n = 24
n = 24/4
= 6
The first term is 6.
In the second step while distributing she made a mistake
It should have been
2x^2 -4x -6x +18 = 9x - 27
So answer should be
She did not use the distributive property correctly

Answer:
First we need to calculate the distance between Clifton and Burlington by using Pythagorean theorem:
x² + 65² = 97²
=> x² = 97² - 65²
=> x² = 5184
=> x = √5184 = 72 (m)
The total distance from Aurora to Clifton through Burlington is: 65 + 72 = 137 (m)
We have: 137 - 97 = 40 (m)
So it is 40 m closer to travel from Aurora to Clifton directly than from Aurora to Clifton through Burlington
Answer:
2y² -4y +5
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to find the sum of y²+5y-1 and 3y²-2y+4
(y²+5y-1) + (3y²-2y+4) => y²+3y²+5y-2y-1+4
=4y²+3y+3
Next is to subtract 2y²+7y-2 from the sum calculated above in order to find the algebraic expression asked in the exercise
4y²+3y+3 -(2y²+7y-2) => 4y²-2y²+3y-7y+3+2
=2y² -4y +5
Therefore, the algebraic expression asked must be 2y² -4y +5
