(Before you answer I am looking for how I do it. I have the answers but I need to know an equation to do this instead of using logic) The sum of two consecutive even numbers is 30. How can you solve for the 2 numbers?

14 and 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that two consecutive even numbers is 30.

Let's let n be any number.

Then the first even number must be 2n.

This is because n can be any number, either even or odd. However, if we multiply it by 2, this ensures that 2n is even. Remember that any number multiplied by 2 yields an even number.

Therefore, the consecutive even number will be (2n+2). Not (2n+1), because that gives an odd number.

We know that they sum to 30. So, we can write the following equation.

And we solve from there:

So, the value of n is 7.

Therefore, the first even number is 7(2)=14.

And the consecutive even number is 16.

Edit: Typo

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .
