Find two positive consecutive
even integers such that the
square of the smaller integer
decreased by five times the
larger integer is 536.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]26[/tex] and [tex]28[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]x[/tex] denote the smaller one of the two even integers ([tex]x > 0[/tex] since both integers are positive.) The larger one of the two consecutive even integer would be [tex](x + 2)[/tex].

The square of the smaller integer would be [tex]x^{2}[/tex].

Five times the larger integer would be [tex]5\, (x + 2)[/tex].

Subtract five times the larger integer from the square of the smaller integer to get [tex](x^{2} - 5\, (x + 2))[/tex].

The value of this expression should be equal to [tex]536[/tex]. In other words:

[tex]x^{2} - 5\, (x + 2) = 536[/tex].

Rewrite and simplify this quadratic equation:

[tex]x^{2} + (-5)\, x + (- 546) = 0[/tex].

[tex]a = 1[/tex].[tex]b = (-5)[/tex].[tex]c = (-546)[/tex]

Apply the quadratic formula to find possible values of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}x_{1} &= \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^{2} - 4\, a\, c}}{2\, a} \\ &= \frac{-(-5) + \sqrt{(-5)^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times (-546)}}{2}\\ &= \frac{5 + \sqrt{2209}}{2} \\ &=\frac{5 + 47}{2} \\ &= 26\end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned}x_{2} &= \frac{-b - \sqrt{b^{2} - 4\, a\, c}}{2\, a} \\ &= \frac{5 - \sqrt{2209}}{2} \\ &=\frac{5 - 47}{2} \\ &= -21\end{aligned}[/tex].

Since [tex]x > 0[/tex] (both numbers are supposed to be positive), [tex]x = 26[/tex] would be the only valid solution.

Therefore, the two integers would be [tex]x = 26[/tex] and [tex]x + 2 = 28[/tex].

By evaluating the given relation, we conclude that the correct options are A, D, and G.

How to check if the points are on the graph?

We have the relation:

k = ∛(V/7)

Such that this relation gives us pairs of the form (V, k).

So, to check if the points belong to the graph of the relation, we need to evaluate the points on the given relation and see if the relation is true.

A) (0, 0) gives:

Evaluating in V = 0

k = ∛(0/7) = 0

So this point belongs.

B) (1, 1) gives:

k= ∛(1/7) = 0.52

So we have the point (1, 0.52) and the point  (1, 1)  then does not belong to the graph.

We just need to do that for all the points, evaluate V and see if k gives the same value as in the point.

With this method, we will see that the correct options are:

D) (7, 1)

k= ∛(7/7) = 1

G) (56, 2)

k= ∛(56/7)  =   ∛(8) = 2

Answer:

To find the area of the shaded region, we first need to know the area of the entire figure and the area of the circle.

To find the area of the circle, we use the formula pi times r^2

r is the radius, which can be found by multiplying the diameter by 1/2

1/2 x 16 = 8

Now we have pi times 8^2

8^2 = 64

Now we have pi times 64

Let's say that pi = 3.141 in this situation. We could be more exact and say 3.14159265... but that is probably not what your teacher wants.

64 x 3.141 = 201.024

So, we have the area of the circle.

Now we need the area of the entire figure.

Well, that's just length times width.

16 x 16 = 256

So, to find the area of the shaded region, we just have to find the difference between 256 and 201.024

256 - 201.024 = 54.976

We can round that to 54.98, or if you want, to 55.

A stack of books is 56 inches high. How high is it in feet and inches?

Answers

1 foot = 12 inches


56 inches / 12 inches = 4.66 feet = 4 feet and 8 inches

Answer:

4 feet and 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a high number of inches to feet you divide it by 12 since 12 inches makes 1 foot.

So 56÷12 = 4 reminder 8

The remainder we keep it as inches

So our answer is 4 feet and 8 inches.

Answers

The rocket will attain a height of 196 feet in 3.5 seconds. Then the correct option is B.

What is a factorization?

It is the method to separate the polynomial into parts and the parts will be in multiplication. And the value of the polynomial at this point will be zero.

A rocket is launched into the air.

The projectile motion of the rocket can be modeled using

h(t) = 112t – 16t²

where t is the time since the launch in seconds and h(t) is the height of the rocket at time t.

The time required for the rocket to be 196 feet in the air. Then we have

         112t – 16t² = 196

16t² – 112t + 196 = 0

  4t² – 28t + 49 = 0

On factorization we have

4t² – 28t + 49 = 0

(2t)² – 28t + 7² = 0

          (2t – 7)² = 0

             2t – 7 = 0

                      t = 3.5

Thus, the rocket will attain a height of 196 feet in 3.5 seconds.
