n, n + 2, n + 4 - three consecutive even integers
the twice the sum of the second and third: 2[(n + 2) + (n + 4)]
twelve less than six times the first: 6n - 12
The equation:
2[(n + 2) + (n + 4)] = 6n - 12
2(n + 2 + n + 4) = 6n - 12
2(2n + 6) = 6n - 12 <em>use distributive property</em>
(2)(2n) + (2)(6) = 6n - 12
4n + 12 = 6n - 12 <em>subtract 12 from both sides</em>
4n = 6n - 24 <em>subtract 6n from both sides</em>
-2n = -24 <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>
n = 12
n + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14
n + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16
<h3>Answer: 12, 14, 16</h3>
The initial value is 3 (when x=0), and the multiplier is 2, when x=2. The equation can be written as
.. y = 3*(2^(x/2))
No, 3/4 is equivalent to 6/8 and 7/8 is in its final form
Answer:
85 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
P=2L+2W where L is the length and W is the width. If the length is 50 feet longer than the width, we can write the expression L=50+W. Substituting into P=2L+2W we get P=2(50+W)+2W=100+2W+2W=100+4W. Since P=300, we can say 300=100+4W. Subtracting 100 from each side we get 200=4W. Dividing each side by 4 gives 50=W. Substituting this into L=50+W gives L=50+35=85. The length is 85 feet.
n, n + 2, n + 4 - three consecutive even integers
3n = 2(n + 4) + 4 |use distributive property
3n = (2)(n) + (2)(4) + 4
3n = 2n + 8 + 4
3n = 2n + 12 |subtract 2n from both sides
n = 12
n + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14
n + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16
Answer: 12, 14, 16.
