Algebra.Com's Answer #325793 by richard1234(7193)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. If we let 2x and 2x+2 be two consecutive even integers, then their sum is 4x+2, which is 2 modulo 4. 146 is the only answer choice that is 2 mod 4, so B is correct.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. We have x^2 - 2xy + y^2 = 0 --> (x - y)^2 = 0, x - y = 0. Hence x = y, answer choice E. \n" ); document.write( " |
