The sum of 2 consecutive even integers is 234, what is the larger integer

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: x= smaller integer
x+2= larger integer

Add the integers

x + (x + 2)= 234
2x + 2= 234
subtract 2 from both sides

2x= 232
divide both sides by 2

x= 116 smaller integer

x+2= 118 larger integer

CHECK:
116 + 118= 234
234= 234

ANSWER: The larger consecutive even integer is 118.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

Answer: Let one of the numbers be x.
The other number will be x + 2.

Sum of the 2 numbers is 234.
x + x + 2 = 234
2x + 2 = 234
2x + 232
x = 116

One number = 116
Other number = 116 + 2 = 118

Answer: Larger number = 118

Is 31.010 greater or less or equal to 31.01

Answers

Well, lets look at it this way ... tell me if this does anything for you:

-- Take the number 31.01 .

-- Stick a zero on the end and make it 31.010 .

-- Zeros at the end of a number after the decimal point don't change
the value of the number. So you haven't changed the value of 31.01 .

-- But now it looks exactly like the other number !

-- They must be equal.

Does this float your boat at all ?

31.010 is = to 31.01

the reason being that the 0 on the end of 31.010 is just there for to hold an unwanted place value.

Ex. 0.70 is the same as 0.7 because the zero is just holding a place value. It's not wrong to put in the zero but its better if you don't.

When a number is a multiple of 2 what are the possible values for the ones digit

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 2,4,6,8 and 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is considered a multiple of 2 when it contains the number 2 repeated several times.

For example the number 8, contains the number 2 repeated 4 times = 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8

It can also be a multiple of 2, any number multiplied by two. For example 6 is a multiple of 2 since 2x3 = 6

In simple words, all even numbers, or all numbers multiplied by 2, are multiples of 2.

2x0 = 0

2x1 = 2

2x2= 4

2x3 = 6

2x4 = 8

2X5 = 10 ...

The possible values for the ones digit are 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.
