Answer: 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 3 consecutive even numbers be x, (x-2) and (x+2) respectively.
According to the question,
x + (x - 2) + (x + 2) = 132
or, x + x - 2 + x + 2 = 132
or, 3x = 132
or, x = 132 ÷ 3
or, x = 44
So, first even number = 44
Required third number = 44 + 2
= 46

Suppose 7x-5 M=- 3 x-8 and NE 2 2 x - 5 x - 50 X - 14 x +40 and you want to add the fractions M and N, in other words you want to compute 7x-5 3 x - 8 2 x - 5 x - 50 x - 14 x + 40 and simplify the result. We know that, before you can add the fractions, you must find a common denominator and rewrite each fraction so it has that common denominator. Once the rewritten fractions have the same denominator, you can add them and simplify the result.
There are four text boxes below. In the first text box, enter a common denominator for the two fractions. In the second text box, rewrite M so that it possesses the common denominator you found. Note that your entry in this text box should equal M, however it should have the common denominator you found. In the third text box, rewrite N so that it possesses the common denominator you found. In the last text box, compute your simplified answer for M N . Make sure that your answer is simplified; the numerator and denominator of your answer for M N should not have common factors. Note that your entry for the common denominator should be a polynomial with integer coefficients. Your other three entries should be fractions that contain polynomials. All of your answers should contain no letters other than the variables that appear in M and N. Do not include an equals sign with any of your answers. All of your expressions should be mathematically correct and not contain non-mathematical symbols. After entering your answers, click the Save Answer button.

Answer:
[tex](a)[/tex] [tex]Denominator= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]
[tex](b)[/tex] [tex]M = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]
[tex](c)[/tex] [tex]N = \frac{(3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x-4)(x-10)(x + 5)}[/tex]
[tex](d)[/tex] [tex]M + N = \frac{10x^2-26x -20}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{x^2 -5x - 50}[/tex]
[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{x^2 -14x+ 40}[/tex]
Solving (a): A common denominator of M and N.
To do this, we simply get the LCM of both denominators
[tex]M = x^2 - 5x - 50[/tex]
[tex]N = x^2 - 14x + 40[/tex]
Factorize both:
[tex]M = (x - 10)(x + 5)[/tex]
[tex]N = (x- 10)(x - 4)[/tex]
The LCM is
[tex]LCM= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]
Hence, the common denominator is:
[tex]Denominator= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]
Solving (b): Rewrite M
[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{x^2 -5x - 50}[/tex]
Factor the denominator:
[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{(x+5)(x - 10)}[/tex]
The LCM calculated in (a) above is:
[tex]LCM= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]
So, we have to multiply the numerator and denominator of M by (x - 4)
The expression becomes:
[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{(x+5)(x - 10)} * \frac{x - 4}{x-4}[/tex]
[tex]M = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]
Solving (c): Rewrite N
[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{x^2 -14x+ 40}[/tex]
Factor the denominator:
[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{(x-4)(x-10)}[/tex]
The LCM calculated in (a) above is:
[tex]LCM= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]
So, we have to multiply the numerator and denominator of N by (x + 5)
The expression becomes:
[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{(x-4)(x-10)} * \frac{x + 5}{x + 5}[/tex]
[tex]N = \frac{(3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x-4)(x-10)(x + 5)}[/tex]
(d) Solve M + N
[tex]M + N = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)} + \frac{(3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x-4)(x-10)(x + 5)}[/tex]
Take LCM
[tex]M + N = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4) + (3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]
Open brackets
[tex]M + N = \frac{7x^2 - 28x - 5x + 20 + 3x^2 + 15x - 8x - 40}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]
Collect Like Terms
[tex]M + N = \frac{7x^2 + 3x^2- 28x - 5x + 15x - 8x + 20 - 40}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]
[tex]M + N = \frac{10x^2-26x -20}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]

Write the difference in factored form. (24x4 - 15x2 + 6x) - (10x4 + 5x2 - 4x)
Answers
Answer:
The factored difference is: [tex]2x(7x^3 - 10x + 5)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Difference in non factored form:
To find the difference in non-factored form, we subtract the common terms. So
[tex]24x^4 - 15x^2 + 6x - (10x^4 + 5x^2 - 4x) = 24x^4 - 10x^4 - 15x^2 - 5x^2 + 6x + 4x = 14x^4 - 20x^2 + 10x[/tex]
Greatest common factor:
Of the exponents: Between [tex]x^4, x^2[/tex] and [tex]x[/tex], it is the one with the lowest exponent, so x.
Between 14, 20 and 10:
14 - 20 - 10|2
7 - 10 - 5
So 2
The gcf is 2x, which means that the factored expression is:
[tex]2x(\frac{14x^4}{2x} - \frac{20x^2}{2x} + \frac{10x}{2x}) = 2x(7x^3 - 10x + 5)[/tex]
The factored difference is: [tex]2x(7x^3 - 10x + 5)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = -16
Step-by-step explanation:
−10y+4(3y−8)=−64
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−10y+4(3y−8)=−64
−10y+(4)(3y)+(4)(−8)=−64(Distribute)
−10y+12y+−32=−64
(−10y+12y)+(−32)=−64(Combine Like Terms)
2y+−32=−64
2y−32=−64

Answers
Answer:
Quadratic (I took the test)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=t+2 equals y-2=t
put t in for x=t^1/2. this is x=(y-2)^1/2, which equals x^2=y-2.
add 2 to both sides, which is y=x^2+2 . This is an example of a quadratic equation (you kinda just need to know the format of different types of equations for the last part. It isn't cubic because it has a number added to it, isn't linear because the x is squared, and tbh I have no clue what quartic is.)
This is an example of a quadratic equation.
We have given that the equation
y=t+2 equals y-2=t
What is the quadratic equation?A quadratic equation is an algebraic equation of the second degree in x. The quadratic equation in its standard form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a,b are and c represents the constant.
put t in for x=t^1/2. this is x=(y-2)^1/2,
Squaring both sides we get,
x^2=y-2.
add 2 to both sides, which is y=x^2+2.
This is an example of a quadratic equation.

Determine the area
The perimeter is:
[tex]Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth)[/tex]

Many studies have investigated the question of whether people tend to think of an odd or an even number when they are asked to think of a single-digit number (0 through 9). Combining results from several studies, Kubovy and Psotka (1976) used a sample of 1,770 people, of whom 741 thought of an even number and 1,029 thought of an odd number. Would a one-sided or a two-sided alternative hypothesis be more appropriate in this case
Answers
Answer:
A two-sided alternative hypothesis would be more appropriate in this case
Step-by-step explanation:
A one-sided hypothesis is one that asserts that a given parameter is either smaller than the null hypothesis value or larger than the value presented by the null hypothesis.
However in a two sided hypothesis, the claim is made that a given parameter is not equal to the parameter given in the null hypothesis, such that the parameter can be either larger than than or lesser than the value of the null hypothesis and still satisfy the condition of the hypothesis
Therefore, given for that for there to be a conclusion, the test should be weather the number of people that think of an odd number are equal to the number of people that think of an even number, or weather the number of people that think of an odd number are not equal to the number of people that think of an even number
Therefore, a two-sided hypothesis should be used since the claim (that the numbers are not equal) is not equal to the value of the parameter in the null hypothesis (that the numbers are equal)

The required profit is 300.
What is profit?Profit in Math is considered as the gain amount from any business activity.
Now the given function of profit is,
P = 30x + 50y
The Corner that maximizes profit is (0, 6)
Thus, At (0, 6) the given function is given as,
Put x = 0 and y = 6 in the given function.
P(0, 6) = 30*0 + 50*6
⇒ P(0, 6) = 0 + 300
P(0, 6) = 300
this is the required profit.
Thus, the required profit is 300.

A shirt costs 20$ if it was on sale for 75 percent off what is the discount
Answers
Then you would have 100x=75*20 and if you simplify all the way you would get x=15
So the discount would be $15
Hope this helps :)
convert 75% to decimal- so divide by 100; you will get 0.75
then you multiply 20 and 0.75
20 x 0.75 = 15
answer: the discount is $15
(however, remember that the new shirt price would be $5)
if the shirt cost $20 after discount:
we know that 100% is the whole, and 75% is the discount, so this means that the leftover 25% = $20
so using proportions,
25/100=20/x, cross multiply & simplify you would get x = 80
to find the discount, subtract the cost from the original price and get 60
answer: the discount was $60
(however remember the original price of the shirt was $80)
