Two consecutive odd numbers total -20 find the smaller

Mathematics
1 answer:
Yakvenalex [24]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

-9

Step-by-step explanation:

use an equation to solve this

consecutive means in succession, one after the other

since they're odd, both numbers have to be odd

let x be the first number

x+x+2=-20

+2 because if you only +1, one of the numbers would be even

2x+2=-20

-2. -2

2x=-22

x=-11

the smaller would be -9 since we are adding x and x+2 together

earnstyle [38]
36:12. 36 is the teeth on the front socket and 12 is the teeth on the rear socket. All you need to do is simplify by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of 36 and 12-which is 12, then divide by the GCF. This gives you 3:1. The gear ratio for the bike is 3 teeth on the front socket for every 1 teeth on the rear socket (3:1)
