Given three consecutive even integers whose sum is 54, find the largest of the three integers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The largest of the three numbers is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

16, 18, 20

(n) + n+2 + n+4

Note:

We only took even numbers

Answer 2

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the least integer = x. The three consecutive even integers can be denoted as:

x , x + 2 , x + 4

Set the equation:

(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 54

Simplify. Combine like terms:

(x + x + x) + (2 + 4) = 54

(3x) + (6) = 54

3x + 6 = 54

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operation and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

~

First, subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

3x + 6 (-6) = 54 (-6)

3x = 54 - 6

3x = 48

Next, divide 3 from both sides of the equation:

(3x)/3 = (48)/3

x = 48/3

x = 16

~

Next, find the largest of the three integers, which was denoted as x + 4:

x + 4

(16) + 4 = 20

20 is the largest integer.

Check:

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 54

16 + (16 + 2) + (16 + 4) = 54

16 + 18 + 20 = 54

16 + 38 = 54

54 = 54 (True).

A regular pentagon is shown
The perimeter is 125 cm
Write an equation and solve this
to find the value of x.​

Answers

Answer: The equation is 5x = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

A pentagon is a five sided figure so all the side lengths must be equal. And to find the perimeter of a pentagon the you will  the five equal side lengths.

So assume we don't know the side lengths so we will represent it by x and the side lengths are 5 so we will have five x's and they will add up to 125 and that could be represent by the equation.

x + x + x + x + x = 125

5x = 125

x = 25  

Hey can someone help me figure out what 3/4(x-8)=12

Answers

Answer:

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4(x-8)=12

Multiply each side by 4/3

4/3*3/4(x-8)=12*4/3

x-8 = 16

Add 8 to each side

x-8+8 = 16+8

x=24

Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, you need to break this apart.

You need to isolate the x to figure it out with division or something.

To isolate, you need to get rid of the numbers around it.

To get rid of the 3/4, you can convert it to a decimal to make it easier, and then divide both sides by 0.75 to get rid of it on the x's side.

You now have

x-8 = 12/0.75

You can quickly punch the right side into a calculator to make it easier.

x - 8 = 16

You then add 8 to both sides to finish off the x, to get

x = 24

someone help me please

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

to make it easier we bring it to the pure y = ax + b form.

y + 1 = 7/8 x

y = 7/8 x - 1

x = -2

y = (7/8 × -2) - 1 = -7/4 - 1 = -7/4 - 4/4 = -11/4

x = 0

y = (7/8 × 0) - 1 = 0 - 1 = -1

x = 1

y = (7/8 × 1) - 1 = 7/8 - 1 = 7/8 - 8/8 = -1/8

x = 8/7

y = (7/8 × 8/7) - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0

x = 2

y = (7/8 × 2) - 1 = 7/4 - 1 = 7/4 - 4/4 = 3/4

The ratio of the units digit to the tens digit of a two-digit number is one-half.The tens digit is 2 more than the units digit. Find the number.

Answers

Answer:

Number : 42

Step-by-step explanation:

This number will be a two - digit number, and hence we can say that it is yz. The ratio of the units digit to the tens digit is given by 1 / 2, so z / y = 1 / 2.

In addition the tens digit is 2 more than the units digit, so y = z + 2. We therefore have the following system of equations,

y = z + 2,

z / y = 1 / 2

Substituting the first equation into the second we receive z / z + 2 = 1 / 2. Using this we can solve for z.

z / z + 2 = 1 / 2 ( Cross - Multiply )

z + 2 = 2z, z = 2

And knowing z we can solve for y. y = z + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4. Therefore our number is 42.

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto y=\dfrac{252}{14}[/tex]

Answer:

y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar, the corresponding sides are in proportion, that is

[tex]\frac{BC}{EF}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AC}{DF}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{y}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{21}{14}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

What is function?

Functions are the fundamental part of the calculus in mathematics. The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input . Mapping or transformation is used to denote a function in math. These functions are usually denoted by letters. The domain is defined as the set of all the values that the function can input while it can be defined. The range is all the values that come out as the output of the function involved. Co-domain is the set of values that have the potential of coming out as outputs of a function.

given function:

[tex]f(x)[/tex]= 2[tex]x[/tex] -7

So,[tex]f(x)[/tex]= 0

2[tex]x[/tex] -7=0

2[tex]x[/tex]= 7
