Find three consecutive even integers such that when the first integer is
multiplied by the third integer, the result is 2 more than 5 times the
second integer. [Only an algebraic solution will be accepted.]

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4, 6, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive integers be a, b, and c.

So, first, we know that they are three consecutive even integers. In other words:

[tex]a=2n,b=2n+2,c=2n+4[/tex]

N is any integer, but the 2n ensures that the outcome is even. Since we want to make the subsequent terms also even, we add 2.

We are told that when the first integer (a) is multiplied by the third integer (c), the result is 2 more than 5 times the second integer (b). In other words:

[tex]ac=2+5b[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex](2n)(2n+4)=2+5(2n+2)[/tex]

Distribute both sides:

[tex]4n^2+8n=2+10n+10[/tex]

Add on the right:

[tex]4n^2+8n=10n+12[/tex]

Subtract 10n and 12:

[tex]4n^2-2n-12=0[/tex]

Divide everything by 2:

[tex]2n^2-n-6=0[/tex]

Factor. Find two numbers that when multiplied equals (2)(-6)=-12 and when added equals -1.

3 and -4 works. Thus:

[tex]2n^2-4n+3n-6=0\\2n(n-2)+3(n-2)=0[/tex]

Combine:

[tex](2n+3)(n-2)=0[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]2n+3=0\text{ or } n-2=0[/tex]

Solve for n:

[tex]n=-3/2\text{ or } n=2[/tex]

So, n is either -3/2 or 2.

That means that a must be either:

[tex]a=2(-3/2)\text{ or } 2(2)[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]a=-3\text{ or } 4[/tex]

The first answer is not even. So:

[tex]a=4[/tex]

Our first answer is 4.

And our sequence is 4, 6, and 8.

Checking:

4 times 8 is 32.

2 plus 5 times 6 is also 32.

So our answer is correct.

The product of two whole number is 462 and their sum is 43. What are the two numbers?

Answers

Answer:

21 and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two whole numbers be a and b.

Their product is 462. Hence, we can write that:

[tex]ab=462[/tex]

Likewise, because their sum is 42:

[tex]a+b=43[/tex]

This yields a system of equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{cases} ab = 462 \\ a + b = 43 \end{cases}[/tex]

We can solve the system using substitution.

Isolating one variable in the second equation yields:

[tex]a=43-b[/tex]

From substitution:

[tex](43-b)(b)=462[/tex]

Distributing yields:

[tex]-b^2+43b=462[/tex]

Solve for b by factoring:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} b^2 - 43d & = -462 \\ \\ b^2 - 43d + 462 & = 0 \\ \\ (b-21)(b-22) &= 0 \\ \\ b = 21 \text{ or } b & = 22 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Solve for a:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} a& =43-(21) & \text{ or } a& =43-(22) \\ a&=22&\text{ or } a&=21\end{aligned}[/tex]

In conclusion, the two whole numbers are 21 and 22.

235 people are at RSM summer camp. There are 35 more boys than girls, and 70 fewer adults than girls. How many people of each group are at the camp? PLS DO IT QUICK

Answers

Answer:

Number of girls = 90

Number of boys = 125

Number of Adults = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent:

The number of girls = g

The number of boys = b

Number of Adults = a

235 people are at RSM summer camp.

Hence,

g + b + a = 235 .......Equation 1

There are 35 more boys than girls, and 70 fewer adults than girls.

b = g + 35

a = g - 70

Hence we substitute g + 35 for b and g - 70 for a in Equation 1

g + b + a = 235 .......Equation 1

g + g + 35 + g - 70 = 235

3g + 35 - 70 = 235

3g - 35 = 235

3g = 235 + 35

3g = 270

g = 270/3

g = 90

Hence, there are 90 girls in the party.

Number of boys is calculated as:

b = g + 35

b = 90 + 35

b = 125

Number of Adults is calculated as:

a = g - 70

a = 90 - 70

a = 20

How many people of each group are at the camp?

Number of girls = 90

Number of boys = 125

Number of Adults = 20

Answer:

There are 90 girls, 125 boys, and 20 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of girls. How many boys were there?

x + 35

How many adults were there?

x - 70

We know that 235 people are at RSM summer camp. Use this to make an equation.

x + (x + 35) + (x - 70) = 235

x + x + 35 + x - 70 = 235

3x - 35 = 235

3x - 35 + 35 = 235 + 35

3x = 270

3x ÷ 3 = 270 ÷ 3

x = 90

x, x + 35, x - 70

90, 125, 20

What is the equation of the line parallel to 3x + 5y = 11 that passes through the point (15, 4)?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex]y = - \frac{3}{5} x + 13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

The original line is 3x + 5y = 11

We must first write the equation in the general equation above

So we have

5y = - 3x + 11

Divide both sides by 5

[tex]y = - \frac{ 3}{5} x + \frac{11}{5} [/tex]

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = - 3/5

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = - 3/5

So the equation of the line using point

(15, 4) and slope - 3/5 is

[tex]y - 4 = - \frac{3}{5} (x - 15) \\y - 4 = - \frac{3}{5} x + 9 \\ y = - \frac{3}{5} x + 9 + 4[/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]y = - \frac{3}{5} x + 13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I used a graphing calculator to graph f(x) = -x^2 + 4x - 5, and by doing so I immedately saw that the vertex of f(x) is at (2, -1).

The absolute max of g(x) is approximately (3.25, 6.1).

The absolute max of f(x) is approximately (2, -1).

Since the y-coordinate of the absolute maximum of g(x) is greater than the y-coordinate of the absolute maximum of f(x), we conclude that Answer C is correct:  g(x) has the greater absolute maximum

Solve the inequality 9y+5(y+3)<4y−35 and write the solution in interval notation.

Answer:

( −∞,−5) interval notation, and inequality solution y < -5 ,

Step-by-step explanation:

Your Interval Notation would be an open circle and the arrow would be pointing to the left. (<-- (-6) --- (-5) --- (-4) -->) This will be your # line.

Step-by-step explanation:

9y+5(y+3) < 4y-35

1) Distribute the 5 in 5(y+3).

9y+5y+15 < 4y-35

2) Combine like terms. 9y and 5y.

9y+5y= 14y

14y+15 < 4y-35

3) MY TIP is to keep the variables on the left side, bc if you don't at the end you will have to flip the sign. so.. Subtract 4y from both sides

14y+15 < 4y-35

-4 -4

10y+15 < -35

3) Then you will subtract 15 from both sides

10y+15 < -35

-15 -15

10y < -50

4) Last is to divide to get your variable by itself.

10y < -50

The sum of 2 composite numbers is never a prime number. Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite numbers are positive numbers that have factors, This means that they are divisible by numbers other than 1 and itself provided that number is a factor of the composite number. They possess at the bearest minimum level, a divisor other than  1 and itself. They are a natural number that is expressible as the product of two(or more) numbers other than 1 and itself.

For example:

4 is a composite number because its factors are 1, 2 and 4 which have another divisor apart from 1 and itself (4). That divisor is 2.

We all know that prime numbers are numbers that can be only be divided by 1 and itself.

Therefore, the sum of two composite number, for example:

4 + 6 = 10, We can now see that 10 is never a prime number.

When a number is increased by 26, the result is tripled. Then the result is increased by 72. If the final result is 1/2 of the number, what is the value of this number?

Answers

Answer:

-60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x.

Number is increased by 26 = x+26

Then result is tripled = 3(x+26)

Then the result is increased by 72 = 3(x+26)+72

Final result is [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] of the number = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}x[/tex]

[tex]3(x+26)+72=\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]3x+78+72=\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]3x+150=\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]

Isolate variable terms.

[tex]3x-\dfrac{x}{2}=-150[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{6x-x}{2}=-150[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2.

[tex]5x=-300[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5.

[tex]x=-\dfrac{300}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=-60[/tex]

Therefore, the required number is -60.
