Find three consecutive even integers if three times the first integer is two times the third

Mathematics

Andreyy892 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Smallest Integer = 2x - 2

Middle integer = 2x

Largest integer = 2x + 2

All three are every

3(2x - 2) = 2(2x + 2)

6x - 6 = 4x + 4                Add 6 to both sides

6x = 4x + 6 + 4               Combine

6x = 4x + 10                    Subtract 4x from both sides

6x-4x = 10                      Combine

2x = 10                           Divide by 2

x = 10/2

x = 5

  • 2x - 2 = 2*5 - 2 = 8
  • 2x =                     10
  • 2x+2                    12

3*8 = 2*12

24 = 24

So the answers are correct.

X=2
2x-3=-x+3

add three to both sides
add 1x to each side
should be left with 3x=6
divide both sides by 3 to get x alone
your answer then is x=2

a fair coin is flipped 10 times. what is the probability of getting the same number of heads and tails
Dafna11 [192]

If you flip a coin one time, the probability to get a Head is

p = 1/2

The probability of not getting a head in a single toss is :

q = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

Thus there is only one unique situation to get the same number of heads and tails : in 10 toss you need to get exactly five heads, it will means that the rest is the tails.

Now using Binomial theorem of probability, the probability of getting exactly x = 5 heads in a total of n = 10 tosses is :

P(X = 5) = \frac{10!}{5!*5!} *(\frac{1}{2})^{5} *(\frac{1}{2})^{5}≈ 0.246

So the probability of that is 24,6 %

Good Luck
