We are given:
An even number 'n', multiplied by the next consecutive even number is 168
Solving for n:
From the given statement, we can say that:
n(n+2) = 168 [n multiplied by the next even number 'n+2']
n² + 2n = 168
n² + 2n - 168 = 0 [subtracting 168 from both sides]
We can see that we now have a quadratic equation, solving using splitting the middle term
n² + 14n - 12n - 168 = 0
n(n + 14) -12(n + 14) = 0 [factoring out common terms]
(n-12)(n+14) = 0
Here, we can divide both sides by either (n-12) OR (n+14)
Checking the result in both the cases:
(n + 14) = 0/(n-12) (n-12) = 0/(n+14)
n + 14 = 0 n - 12 = 0
n = -14 n = 12
Both these values are even and since we are not told if the number 'n' is positive or negative, both 12 and -14 are the possible values of n
Evaluate the following for when x=5

Step-by-step explanation:
2x-2y=-10 Standard to Slope Intercept form
Answer:
y=x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-2y=10
1.) subtract 2x from both sides
-2y=-2x+10
2.) Divide by -2 to get y by itself
y=x-5
Answer:
y= x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
y =mx+b is slope intercept form
Aiden was asked to find the product of 24.5 and 7.7. His work is shown below. Which statements about Aiden's work are true? Check all that apply Estimate: 25 x 8 = 200 Aiden did not make a good estimate. Actual: 24.5 x 7.7 = 1,886.5 Aiden should have estimated the product as 24 x 7. Aiden did not insert the decimal point correctly when estimating. Aiden did not insert the decimal point correctly after multiplying the actual amount. O Aiden's estimate and the actual product do not match closely enough.

Step-by-step explanation:
It’s time to lock down the design details for the redesigned Brick and Egyptian candles. Because of manufacturing constraints, the base length for each candle has to be at least 2 cm and can be no more than 10 cm. Make a recommendation for the base dimensions of each candle. Explain how you determined your base dimensions. Your reasoning does not have to be all math related.
Answer:
THE SMALLEST FORMS:
- smallest prism ---> the cube with all sides 2 ==> the volume is 2*2*2 = 8 cm^3
- smallest pyramid number one ---> the pyramid with base sides 2 and the height also 2 ==> the volume is (1/3)*2*2*2 = 8/3 cm^3
- smallest pyramid number two ---> the pyramid with base sides 2 and the lateral sides also 2 ==> the radius of the base is sqrt(2) ==> [pyramid_height]^2 = [lateral_side]^2 - [base_radius]^2 = 2^2 - sqrt(2)^2 = 4 - 2 = 2 ==> pyramid_height = sqrt(2) ==> the volume is (1/3)*2*2*sqrt(2) = 4*sqrt(2)/3 cm^3
- smallest cylinder --> the cylinder of diameter 2 and height also 2 ==> the radius is diameter/2 = 2/2 = 1 ==> the volume is pi*(radius^2)*height = pi*(1^2)*2 = pi*1*2 = 2*pi cm^3
The lesser volume is the volume of the smallest pyramid number two. ==> it's wax cost is approximately 0.0075 * 4 * 1.42 / 3 $ per candle = 0.014 $ per candle ==> the total cost per candle is approximately 0.014 + 1.6 = 1.614 $ per candle.
THE BIGGEST FORMS:
- biggest prism ---> the cube with all sides 10 ==> the volume is 10*10*10 = 1000 cm^3
- biggest pyramid number one ---> the pyramid with base sides 10 and the height also 10 ==> the volume is (1/3)*10*10*10 = 1000/3 cm^3
- biggest pyramid number two ---> the pyramid with base sides 10 and the lateral sides also 10 ==> the radius of the base is 5*sqrt(2) ==> [pyramid_height]^2 = [lateral_side]^2 - [base_radius]^2 = 10^2 - [5*sqrt(2)]^2 = 100 - 50 = 50 ==> pyramid_height = 5*sqrt(2) ==> the volume is (1/3)*10*10*5*sqrt(2) = 500*sqrt(2)/3 cm^3
- biggest cylinder --> the cylinder of diameter 10 and height also 10 ==> the radius is diameter/2 = 10/2 = 5 ==> the volume is pi*(radius^2)*height = pi*(5^2)*10 = pi*25*10 = 250*pi cm^3
The bigger volume is the volume of the biggest prism (the side-10 cube). ==> it's wax cost is 0.0075 * 1000 $ per candle = 7.5 $ per candle ==> the total cost per candle is 7.5 + 1.6 = 9.1 $ per candle
The range of the cost is the interval [1.614 ; 9.1]. Depending on other prices on the market, you greed, and other factors you will put a profit margin: maybe 20% of the cost ; maybe a fixed margin like 5$. So the price per candle will be the cost per candle plus the profit margin per candle.
If I were to choose the base length I would have to say 6 because it is the arithmetic mean between 2 and 10: (2+10)/2 = 12/2 = 6. 2cm is too small, and 10cm is too big.
Also if you start with a rectangle of length 10 and width 2 and you have to find the rectangle with the largest area by being allowed to increase the width and decrease the width with the same quantity you get this:
Area of the new rectangle is (10-x)(2+x) = -x^2 + 8x + 20 = -x^2 + 8x -16 + 36 = -(x^2 - 2*x*4 + 4^2) + 36 = -(x-4)^2 + 36 = 36 - (x-4)^2 which has the maximum value of 36 because out of 36 you subtract a positive value. You get the maximum when (x-4)^2 = 0 ==> x-4=0 ==> x=4
The new length is 10-4=6 and the new width is 2+4=6.
Next I would choose the height of the prism (I like prisms :P) to be [the_golden_ratio]*[base_side] which is approximately 1.618 * 6 = 9.708 which I would round up to 10. ==> The volume would be 6*6*10 = 360 cm^3. ==> the cost would be 0.0075*360 + 1.6 = 2.7 + 1.6 = 4.3 $ per candle. And because my candle is so perfect I'd put the profit margin to be 5.69 $ per candle so I can proudly show it in the store with the price of 4.3 + 5.69 = 9.99 $ :)

Which inequality represents all values of x for which the product below is
defined?
please help very confused
Answer:
C. x ≥ 5
Step-by-step explanation:
You must meet both conditions:
(x -5) ≥ 0 and (x +2) ≥ 0
For the first condition, ...
x ≥ 5 . . . . add 5 to both sides
For the second condition ...
x ≥ -2 . . . . subtract 2 from both sides.
Since both conditions must be met, we must have ...
x ≥ 5

Answer:
The light blue/greenish one that says T=PV/K or Greeland
Step-by-step explanation:
We can make the equation more simplier by multiplying both sides by P to remove fractions.
It would become VP=KT
The only answer with VP or PV is B, or the T=PV/K
also, to isolate T, divide the VP=KT by K on both sides to isolate T.
VP/K=T

Which of the following inequalities matches the graph? (1 point)
-10
-0
10
1. x>-3
2. x<-3
3. y>-3
4. y<-3
Given:
The graph of an inequality.
To find:
The inequality.
Solution:
From the given graph it is clear that the boundary line is a vertical line parallel to y-axis at the distance of 3 units from the left of y-axis. So, the equation of boundary line is
[tex]x=-3[/tex]
Now, the shaded portion lies on the left of the boundary line. It means the values which are less than 0 are included in the solution set.
The boundary line is a dotted line. So, x=-3 is not included in the solution set.
So, the required inequality is
[tex]x<-3[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is B.
Raul opened a savings account with 4300. Each week, x, Raul pays the dog sitter 30 from his savings account. Write a function, f(x), that is equal to the amount of money in the account after Raul pays the dog sitter each week.
Given:
Amount in the savings account = 4300
Each week, Raul pays the dog sitter 30 from his savings account.
To find:
The function, f(x), that is equal to the amount of money in the account after Raul pays the dog sitter each week.
Solution:
Let x be the number of weeks.
Raul pays the dog sitter in 1 week = 30
Raul pays the dog sitter in x week = 30x
Remaining amount = Initial amount - Amount he pays the dog sitter
[tex]f(x)=4300-30x[/tex]
Therefore, the required function is [tex]f(x)=4300-30x[/tex].

A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a play at a theater that has 3100 seats. The students left 1395 seats vacant. What percentage of the seats in the theater were filled by the 6th graders on the trip?
Answer: 55% of the seats in the theater were filled by the 6th graders on the trip.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Total seats = 3100
Seats vacant= 1395
Seats occupied by 6th graders = 3100-1395 = 1705
The percentage of the seats in the theater were filled by the 6th graders on the trip = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Seats occupied by 6th graders}}{\text{Total seats}}\times100[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{1705}{3100}\times100\\\\= 55\%[/tex]
Hence, 55% of the seats in the theater were filled by the 6th graders on the trip.
